Familia,
Okay so last Monday my district got
to go hike to a waterfall and it was so so pretty from the top, the only
problem was as we started hiking down to the base the Distric Leader decided it
was too dangerous so we didn ´t get to go all the way down to the bottom which
was a bit of a bummer. But, it was still really pretty from the top. Also,
everyday I feel like I´m on some crazy hike with the Graham´s, because most of
our investigators live at 20 minutes out of the main city area. My shoes are
already starting to wear out a little, but I love our investigators.
The other morning we went to help
Hna. Maria make tamales. People here do things so different. It was so funny to
see her gutting the shicken and then, instead of cutting it into peices with a
regular knife, she pulls out the machete and starts hacking away. It was really
interesting to watch and we got to help her grind up the corn, because here
everything is made from scratch scratch, it´s pretty cool! Also, this same day
another investigator fed us something that was similar to french toast but
better. I can´t remember what it´s called right now, but one day I´ll learn how
to make it.
The past few days me and my
companion have been chased by so many wild dogs, chickens, and geese. And it
may be hard to believe, but being chased by the angry geese was probably the
scariest of the three. There are always crazy chickens walking around
everywhere, but usually they don´t chase us. But, last night we went to visit a
menos activo named Hno. Santos Emilio and he took us into his back yard to show
us his chickens. And instead of having a chicken coop or just letting his
chickens roam free like most people here, he has trained all of his chickens to
climb a rail into this tree. So, basically he has this huge tree that is full
of chickens! It was one of the funniest things I´ve seen since I´ve been here.
These people are great! I love you all mucho!
Love,
Hermana Hansen
