Life on the other side of the world

how's life going on the other side of the world?

it's funny, the swine flu thing has some funny phases. phase 1 everyone freaks out, phase 2 nobody cares anymore, phases 3 they freak out some more, and last phase problem solved. here in Argentina they are in between phase 1 and 2. but anyway that's that about that. it's a good thing for missionaries cause everyone is at home, but at the same time some people don't want to open the door, cause they are scared we have the gripe (flu). but anyways that's all I'm going to talk about the gripe, cause it's annoying.

But this week was really cool. p-day we played basketball, and futbol, tuesday we worked alot, found this really great family, but then the wife got the gripe, like 2 days after, so we need to wait till she is better. before we can go back.

but we also found a family of 6. that was all in home and seemed really interested, but that's really all we found.

lots of rejections, but unfortunately for every one who rejects us, it makes my comp, elder vizcardo, want to work harder, and i get a kick out of getting rejected, so it doesn't slow us down.

wednesday was mission conference, it was alright, kind of boring, and there was no food, but it was alright.

then thursday me and elder vizcardo went to Mar del plata cause he needed to get his patriarchal blessing, and there is only two in the mission one in bahia blanca and the other in mar del plata, and we chose mar del plata. it was cool, went to the beach, walked around, a little, then went to the patriarch. it was a little vacation. but 6 hours on a bus to get there, and to get back. but it was cool.i got some pictures i will try to send.

also after that friday we worked some more, that was when we found the family of six, then saturday was a fun day but we didn't actually knock doors, we went to visit some of our investigators, and meet some members.

but anyways, then sunday there was a small meeting for people who don't have the priesthood in their houses at the church. which was fun cause we needed to make it look like there was nobody there cause, right now, it's against the law, or something like that. but it was a good meeting.

oh also funny story i now know why we carry big backpacks, for the dogs, we were walking and this big dog comes and starts barking, looked like it was going to bite me so i took my backpack and nailed the dog, and he went bye bye, it was funny.

now to answer some questions. mom, first of all the city is called bolivar not bolivarria; i was mixing my cities name with that one....that's only for her everyone sorry..... my city is called olavarria, it's kind of a big city, but really not probably the size of tucson, or mesa, cause i don't really know that much about tucson. but anyways, actually i don't know much about mesa either. but anyways it's kind of a poor city, well it is, not kind of it is.

but anyways the food here is good, it doesn't upset my stomach at all, it's really cool,

also it is freezing here, it kind of sucks but whatever. i will get over it.

ummm yeah, hope this letter was longer, better, and all that. thanks for the support, and the love and everything.
peace out
