So when did it hit September??? This is weird.
My week was a fair one, we had a lot of appointments cancel, which is no fun, and then you have to somewhat scramble to figure out who to see. It’s not like LIB where I can just look around and say 'lets talk to them.' I didn’t get any doors slammed in my face this week, so that’s nice.
Sir Williams (have i talked about him?) is doing good. He didn’t come to church though, he was with some people from California who are helping him find a job. That was a little downer. Then we had to fly on our bikes (not a big fan of these while in a suit...) to the Vine Street building to get to the 25th Ward Sacrament meetng. It was a good meeting about Missionary Work. It was also someone’s farewell so there was a lot of people there. When we went to the 3rd ward, we had Gina and her Boyfriend come, both nonmembers. It was really good to see them come.
We talked to a lot of people this week and I lost track of the days… so I don’t know how much I will write.
Oh i went on exchange with Elder Hale, he's from Ephrata WA and has been out about 4 weeks, hahaha, so green! It was good. It was nice to be around someone who is still fresh, they have a little different something to them.
In LIB I got to know Elder Guyman, who lives in Taylorsville(?), his parents came and found us on Friday as we were going back to our apartment, they gave me so really good homemade bread and some butter. We talked for about 10 minutes and they got to hear the whole story about us leaving. They are very nice people. They make great bread!
Well, that’s pretty much it for me on this week. Let’s hope that this week will be even better!!!

Extras:
I told him that I met the Guyman’s at a “families of
Liberian missionaries” party I went to when I was in Utah. She told me she was going to try and find
the LIB missionaries. He added: "That bread is so good!!! I can't stop eating it!!" then said: "I bought a watermelon today. I'm so excited for it!!" I guess they don’t have watermelon’s in
Africa?
Collin sent a couple of
pictures that he took as he flew over London, he wondered if I could identify
them. Of course I could, Big Ben and
the Tower of London are icons! I got to
visit London once, loved it. I was
surprised he recognized these and took pictures of them. While we were in London we were surprised at
how many planes few right over the city, but they do.
I wonder if this was the
first American flag he had seen in awhile?
