Just another amazing day in Mexico!





Well everything is still going well. Tomorrow I am so excited cause our group is going on an overnight field trip to Guanajato. Its a little town about 4 hours outside of Guadalajara. Quite a long bus trip but we are all pretty good about keeping ourselves entertained. Last night a big group of us (BYU students and the Mexican boys from our ward) went to see the movie Chronicles of Nararnia. It was really good. A lot of English made movies here are still in English but subtitiled in Spanish. So its fun to here the english and see how its translated in Spanish. I like it a lot. When the movie got home we all ran and got some ice cream and talked for a while so me and Nani didn't start walking home will 11:30pm. Its a little scary walking that late but we are only 5 minutes from the mall (where the movies are) so it wasn't to bad. There was one part where we ended up having to jump down a wall that I thought was only a small wall. Nani jumped off it (she is like 5' 10" so it was easier for her) and then I was like "oh this is cheese". I jumped off and it was a lot farther down then I thought. I feel right on my buttox!! heheh... We couldn't stop laughing. It was pretty funny!! heheheh..... I put some pictures above. The first one is of the bus we took the other day. They are all decorated so randomly inside and there is no bus that looks the same. This one cracked me up because it had fuzzy tissue boxes hanging from the ceiling so if you needed a tissue they were right there. Muy chistoso! (very funny)! The other ones are of service today. The madres (nuns) are so nice to us. The one is always bringing me water or sneaking me little candies here in there. She sees me taking pictures with the boys every day and letting the use my camera a little bit. Today she came up so excited and asked if she could get her picture taken with me. I said of course so. In the picture she is wearing the baseball cap she got for me. Everyday I am out in the heat with the boys playing "futbal" (soccer) and she is always so worried that my face is going to get sunburned because I have no hat. So today she came out with this bright red cap for me. It was so nice of her. She says she is going to put my name on it in white letters! heheh... Its going to be funny to see how she spells it cause she can barely pronounce my name! But she is so nice to me and so good with the boys. The others are of the boys that I have really becomes attatched to. There is a guy that everyonce in a while brings his dog cause they boys just love it. So today the madre wanted me to get in a picture with the boys and the dog. I think she likes my camera.. hehee.. The solo picture of me and a boy is me with David. He is so precious and so smart. I always look forward to working with him. Well I am off! I think I am going dancing tonight so I need to get ready. Lov ya! Write more soon!
