I love not having normal access to church buildings...we
waited over an hour for someone to find the keys to the church the elderes go
to so we could have our District Meeting. Yeah. So we basically had a mini
District Meeting for 20 minutes and it was Elder Hadley's birthday today so we
got him a pinata and he whacked it. Without a blindfold, which is cheating, but
we all got a bunch of candy.

Then went looking for some
people who weren't home, so we went and talked to this other 80 year old Catholic
lady. We have a cita to return to, so that's good. And then we
went and did some more lessons and walked a lot. We actually walked about 4
miles today. I'm not sure how much
missionaries are supposed to walk, but those 4 miles were all uphill, so it
felt like a lot. I'm also curious to know what's the proportion of calories
burned on normal, flat-surface walking as it is going uphill with a 10 lbs
backpack? I don't know if that made
sense, but if I supposedly burned 379.2 calories walking normally, I figure
it would be more on a multi-level terrain with extra weight in the equation.
But, funny story: so we went and taught our last lesson of
the day, so we were exhausted and tired, and there was a painting of a
guacamaya on the wall. So Hna Mora, all excited, points and goes,
"ey, hay una maracuya!" (hey, there's a passion fruit!) and we all
started laughing. We had been at the bird park all of yesterday, and we all had
maracuya juice for lunch, so she just got the words mixed up. But it was really
funny, I love languages!
