That really is crazy, winter is coming back for you, and summer for me.....well.....I guess you could call it summer lol. One day we were walking in the hot street with the sun out, without a cloud in sight, and I just laughed to myself and told my companion that my family would laugh if they saw that they call this winter here lol.
Well mom, Im not going to lie, I am very happy with the spanish language, and am thinking of changing my maternal language of english, to spanish, I hope you dont mind haha. But I am excited to use it whenever I can in canada. Funny story...When I arrived at the airport in Salt lake , on my way to the MTC, I was waiting by the bus teller when this latina lady came up and in very broken english asked if the young teller knew spanish, the young lady responded and said that she knew a little. (when in reality she didnt know much). after a minute of frustration, the latina lady turned to me and asked if I knew any spanish, and I said that i knew a little, (when in reality I didnt know anything that would help this lady, perhaps if she wanted a translation of english numbers to spanish i would of been of a little help) but yeah, in the end she gave up on us and looked for another source of help. Moral of the story, I hope I have another experience like that on my way home, to help me feel good about myself, and help someone haha
Well we have transfers, and im heading off to who knows where. I´ll let you know next week. But I have loved my time here in San Pedro. Ive had a little more than 5 months here. You grow really close to the members and investigators, and so its kinda sad to leave. These last few days have been filled with goodbyes. But in the end thats ok, the work moves forward, and Im being called to another place that Im sure Ill love. Ive mentioned to some of the members that i´ll come back and visit with my parents after my mission, and they just LOVED that. so, just so ya know, we are very welcome back here haha.
Oh yeah, this past week on aug 24, I bought Iguana and brought it back to our pension for the hermana to cook up for the special occasion. It was delicious. I highly recommend it :)
Well I love you all, thanks for your love and support!
