THE BEACH

Today we went to the beach.Today was the last Pday of one of our ZLs and two other Elders in the Zone so we got to go to the beach. After more than 5 months of not seeing the beach it was extremely nice to go, even if it was only to play some soccer on the sand and put my feet in the water. Definitely the highlight of the week.

The rest of the week went fairly well though, I went on divisions with Elder Carico, who is the companion of our DL, Elder Rowe (who is 6'6 and the second tallest missionary in the mission (I'm the third)). Elder Carico only has five weeks in the mission and doesn't speak any spanish, which meant I did 100% of the talking in all the lessons and visits. It was fun to hang out with someone from the US and chat in English though. It was my third time in the mission so far working with someone who can speak English. There are actually lots of gringo's in the zone though, so everytime we have a meeting or activity with the zone there is a lot of English spoken. 

On Saturday there was a stake youth conference and as a part of the conference the youth went out in groups to contact people and get references for the missionaries. We had to help with the activity, which meant leaving the house at 6:30am, but the activity was super awesome because we got a ton of references. Now the challenge is to go find them all!
