Helloooljagsf
So, transfers were good. I have a new goal for my mission- get rid of everything I have. We slept over at ERfurt to catch the train at 7:17 to Frankfurt. When we got there, we saw alot of our friends, so that was awesome. At like 11 or something Elder Hofbauer and I headed out to Wetzlar. He´s way awesome. AND WE HAVE A CAR. Its way sweet. Im killing him this cycle.(when a missionary goes home, they say they are killing him off) He´s my uncle which means he was trained by Elder Stradling´s trainer. Our ward is a pretty nice size. Its about the same as yours. The schedual is a little weird tho, we have Priesthood 1st, Sunday School 2nd, and Sacrament last. I got to introduce my self. I guess it was okay. Elder Hofbauer said it was good, so Ill take his word for it. Do you know how awesome it is to drive on the Autobahn? Its about the same as it is back home lol. Except where the average speed everyone is driving at home is like 75mph, its about 120mph here(about 190km I think). Its pretty fast, but way awesome. Our ward members are cool. Its nice to finally see people at a meeting, and apperantly everyone wasnt there. The area is way nice. Theres at least 2 castles you can see from the road, and others around the area. We have DDM in Friedrichsdorf, and the building is right next to the temple, so thats way sweet. I get to babysit again this week, but its not for as long. He was actually my companions Golden, so he knows the area pretty well. The German here is way different from the DDR. I can actually understand people haha. And its alot faster, but thats prolly because everyone Ive heard speak has been a tad older than me. My companion. is like 25, and everyone else is also older. But its still way awesome. And because the weather here has been awesome, we´ve been playing alot of soccer. Apperantly Im a lefty player (which I hear is rare), so you can tell Bro. Shelly when I come back Ill be way good. Its just awesome. Im having a blast. We turned clocks forward yesterday. And Im not sure yet whats goin on about General Conference. We might be going to a members house to watch it, or to Friedrichsdorf with the other missionaries, im not sure. 
So people are finally getting Eagles? Thats pretty intense. You schould tell Trav to get a DS and HeartGold or SoulSilver (thats just what I would do) and then he can give it to me when I come home. Yeah, we dont get much world news, but we do have our ways of finding out things. I new about japan, but not about libya. Its a good thing Im over here lol. But yeah, thats about it. If anything else comes up Ill let you know. Zo-Ko is next week in Offenbach, so Ill prolly get your package there. OH. Elder Hofbauer showed me a store where they have Root Beer and Mt. Dew, so I'm way very excited about that.  But yeah, I think thats it. Have a nice week! Tscüß!
