So we got lucky
and still get our p-day today before everything gets too crazy to leave
the house tonight. Pobrecitos the rest of the missionaries because they
don`t get their p-day this week...
Haha ya we had fun with the mustaches and we`ll be
taking more photos very shortly here.... (3 and a half days locked
inside.... basically the package arrived just in time! Thanks again).
It`s been a normal week in the offices.... Didn`t teach much, want to
teach more, weird emergencies (like evacuating an entire zone because of
flooding haha - ya that was actually fun I`m not gonna lie), eating
tons of food because we had 2 conferences with all of the zones in Santa
Cruz, and ya probably more food because we had people staying in our
house again.... Ya, normal week. Oh ya, so we had zone conferences on
Tuesday and Wednesday and on Wednesday we decided that we were going to
give everyone Subway for lunch! There`s a new mall here in Santa Cruz
that is absolutely gigantic!!! It`s supposed to be the biggest mall in
Bolivia (which is definitely true because the only other big malls are
in La Paz) and when we walked in we just stood there for a few
seconds because we were so surprised haha! Bolivian, Chilean, and North
American just standing there not knowing what to say. It was really
funny because we just didn`t even know what to do because it was just so
BIG! But we eventually found the food court which is gigantic and feels
like some giant building in space or something. There`s a Subway, KFC,
McDonalds (supposedly but we didn`t see it yet), and I don`t even
remember what else, but ya they`re restaurants that you can only find
there. There`s also these super expensive Bolivian restaurants that are
awesome and oh ya, TGI Fridays and Hard Rock Cafè too. Ya, it didn`t
feel like we were in Bolivia. So ya, we`re going to have to go check it
out someday soon here before Elder Vasquez heads off to Chile.
And ya... that`s basically it for the week. We played wallyball
again this morning (like we do every p-day). We don`t have enough
players for soccer, so we find some members to play with us and we play
wally every week for 2 hours or so. And I have to mention that I`ve been
first pick now for 3 weeks straight so that makes me feel good.... but
ya know, it`s just wally, not too hard. It`s when we all play soccer
that it starts to get really funny to watch me play haha!
And wow, Parker`s friends are already starting to receive their calls?! What is this?!
.....and
we`re starting to see some crazy Carnival costumes... (we`re at an
internet cafe today because we don`t like passing by the offices on
Saturdays). It`s good that we`ll be inside...
But ya, love you all and glad that everyone`s doin good.
Enjoy the mustache photos.
¡Que tengan una buena semana! [Have a good week!]
Paz y amor,
[Peace and love,]
