This week was pretty good. It was mostly normal, really hot but its getting easier. We went searching for a new house/appartment to live and we weren't able to find a house with the same price for rent in the center of the city so we had to settle with a place a little more expensive and just a little bit smaller because its an appartment. Its a little bit more expensive but its really secure and perfect for missionaries, and it looks brand new (unlike every missionary house that ever existed in this mission) So I'm really excited to be moving there this week once the church approves it, mission president already approved it so they are just finishing the contracts. So we are going to be living in the chic-est appartment in the mission 😎 and its in a great location...in front of the great and spacious catholic church LOL! But its going to be great just not walking 45min to just get to our area from where we are living now.
We had interviews with President and they went well and after he bought lunch for everyone (his family and all the missionaries in the zone) at a place thats known for their goat meat. Everyone tried it and it is good, very meaty. Sister Lazenby wanted everyone to sit in sifferent places at the table to talk to new people so, as she doesn't know how to speak well, I played translator between the brzillian elders and sister lazenby; I liked it , it was fun. They also bought the cashew soda to drink with lunch! Its a soda that is only made in Petrolina and its made with the fruit of the cashew nut which is very interesting, it has a flavor all its own, not everyone likes it but I do.
P-day we haven't had the time to go and do something fun in the center because we arent living there yet but we played monopoly and a game called "dobble" thats super fun.
President says he's planning something fun for the christmas conference that we will be having next week, so we have that to look forward to. We are also propoganding the "be the light of the world" as found on "www.mormon.org" I encourage everyone to take a look and participate, there are some really good ideas on there.
But all is well in the land were one can buy a coconut for less than US$0.50
