Walker's Week #14

so this week some of the people in my apartment got sick with diahria and otro (other) things, but I didn´t. But because they got sick it was really hard to get a shower without someone pounding on the door telling you to get out. The best part is that most the people in my apartment only know Spanish so they can yell all they want and I don´t understand.
(Q. What is a gedo door)A gedo door is just of a bunch of pieces of medal welded to a frame so you can pretty much see through it because there are so many wholes.

I found a piña (pineapple) that was bigger than my head it was very big.

So this week it was my companionships turn to go shopping with our cook. We went to a big market place. It was so cool because it was just a bunch of stands selling fruit. It was so good, I am pretty sure I ate at least half a pineapple. It was awesome!

So this week I went on divisions with the zone leader yep, it was great. We were in my area and I got lost and it took like 30 minutes to find the first house. But after that I semi sort of knew where I was going. So the first house we went to mi and mi companion decided to teach about the plan of salvation. So we were sitting there teaching and they were like we already know this so Elder Taylor started teaching about something else, I am not really sure what but I guess it was good. Then we went to an inactive familoy house for family home evening and taught something there too. But then she gave us food and that was the extent of our division. And then two days later we had to get a baptismal interview.

So we met them at a bus stop and Elder Epinal is like come with me, so we catch a bus and I had no idea what was happening. So we got off that bus and on to another and went to Heradia which is a capital of another place. Oh so you can pretty much go anywhere you want in Costa Rica for ten dollars. So that bus took like 45 minutes. So we went there and we had to convince someone to stop smoking. So there is this thing that if you mix ciggarettes in milk and drink it you will never smoke again, but its really nasty. So his wife was there and she is like if I drink it will you. So she made some and downed it. It was so gross. So he like tried to drink it but threw it up after like the first sip. So she finally got him to drink it and we left them with a picture of a temple. But by this point it was to late to do anything so we went back to the Heradia home which is a 4 elder house and spent the night there but there were 6 of us and only 4 beds, so we slid the bunkbeds together and slept sideways on them. I did not sleep good that night because one of the bunkbeds was taller than the other. Then we woke up at like 5 and left for Alajuela. I was so tired the next day.

Oh so transfers are next week so p-day will be on Wednesday I think.
So love you all, talk to you then
