Okay, so I have a new area in the Robles ward. I like this place a little bit better than Indoamerica. I have no sense of direction. Usually I can figure out where I am and how to get back to the apartment, but then I quickly get lost. Everything looks the same and I am always so disoriented. It is really hard. Also, thanks for getting rid of the rooster and replacing it with a turkey.  I love hearing that thing gobble every twenty seconds. Can't wait till they kill it for Christmas.  Also, if you can kill the dog that barks in the middle of the night, that would be nice too. People here eat cat, so they might as well eat dog. I won't eat it though.  Hahaha

I am trying to think of new things to say, but am still adjusting to it here. Conference was awesome and we watched the Sunday session yesterday so I learned a lot from what the prophets had to say. They really focused on the challenges of life and adversity and it helped a lot to hear those messages.

We don't have water in our apartment, and I never thought how important water actually is. We need it to flush, to shower, to drink;  when you take that away it just stinks. Poop sits in the toilet and my hair looks so gross when I don't shower.  Apparently Trujillo won't have water for twelve days.... wish me luck.

We played soccer today for P-day, and man I really stink. I need to get into shape. My companion stops at every cake shop here and gets a cake, then makes me pay for it. Like what the heck man?

We had a cool experience with this girl named Eldi, who has cancer. She said she had this dream of her Dad and Jesus telling her to come, and she said 'no' and was given more time to change the things she needs to change in her life. When we showed up and told her about the first vision, she started crying and just telling us how grateful she is for knocking on her door and being people that listen to her and invite her to our church.

Hopefully I can learn Spanish better. Pray for me that I can understand and speak better, because man, learning a language is rough.

Love you guys.
