First, to explain the Pictures!
1- When we went to Wimbledon, this guy was handing out free toothpaste with this on it. Yeah. :)
2- this was our dinner before we started our fast. Steamed Vegetables, Fried Plantain, and penne pasta with a sauce that I made from scratch that wasn't great, but it tasted good!
3- Elder Muller made Caramalized plantain. It was delicious.
4- A Chinese lady in the church came back from a trip to China, and brought us some chicken wing and a weird chocolate covered snack. they were very weird.
Alright, so I'm doing good. No problems here. Last P-day I said we were going to Wimbledon, which is a huge famous tennis tournament, but that didn't really work out. We went there, but then we learned that we'd have to wait in line ALL DAY and wouldn't even get in to watch until it was time for us to head back home! So we just went to a park and played some football (Or soccer, for you Americans. :P). Today, we're going to go to the London Eye! I don't think we'll ride it because it's kind of a waste of money. But it will be cool just to see it! I'll take some good pictures of it, and I'll even try to be in some of the pictures. Sorry that this week's pictures are almost all of food, haha. I was hungry.
Well, I really am doing good! I of course think about home sometimes, but I'm not exactly homesick or anything. No offense, but I'd much rather be out here right now. :) I've learned a lot while being out here, that's for sure. One thing that Elder Muller and I read whilst studying in the morning is Romans ummmm, 13? verse 16? I don't know, I don't have my scriptures on m[e] right now. But basically it talks about how loving God and loving your neighbor are basically the two most important commandments. It says if you love your neighbor, then you'll automatically be following most of the ten commandments. Look it up, it says it much better than I can. (Also, I never though I'd be one to quote biblical verse, haha. But it happens a lot out here, since all the Africans love the Bible!)
Speaking of Africans, there really are so many out here! In our ward, there are really only about 10% white people. It's so cool, I love meeting all the different people and learn about their culture. In fact, I'm going to try and learn some basic things in some african languages. Also, my Swiss companion Elder Muller is going to teach me a song in German about red trousers and green socks. Trust me, it's pretty awesome.
Well sorry, but I'm almost out of time and still have to write my letter to the mission president. I love all of you, keep writing and emailing me! Ok, bye!!!
