CLICK ON THE PICTURES TO MAKE THEM BIGGER
Hey everyone! Not much to talk about this week but I did get all of my baggage this week, but they did steal my cd player and running shoes. Shoes here are only about 100 Meticias which is like 4 bucks. The money system is pretty cool. Everything is so cheap it’s sweet. Anyways, today we played football on the beach which was way cool. Everyday I just look around and realize wow I'm actually in Africa and how beautiful it is here. We share our apartment with two other missionaries. I did however have a bad experience this week, when I was cooking with some hot oil the chamose I was cooking fell off my fork and splashed boiling oil all over my hand. There were a lot of people around and I didn't have a place to put the pan down so it sat and boiled on my hand and arm for about 5 seconds before I was able to rinse it off. It’s healing well though so it’s all good. They don’t have any of the good food I like so I’ve had to experiment with different food finding what I like. Oh and one other thing, there is a member here who carves these really cool statues out of this really cool black rock. He makes these "eternal families" they are really cool looking, I'll see if I can send pictures today but I'm not sure and I took pictures of them so if you want them let me know and I will have him make and send them. He sends them through Zimbabwe so they shouldn't have a problem getting there. Ya my daily routine is pretty normal as far as missionary work goes but with alot more lessons. We teach about 6 lessons a day so some days we don't even do street contacts or knock doors. There are alot of people here to teach but the problem is getting them to come to church. Ya sometimes I just get hit in the face with the fact that I'm in Africa but most of the time it just feels like a dream. Anyways my email time is just about up so I better go but I love hearing from you! Thanks for everything. I love you guys! Have a good week!
Love, Elder Brown
