im way glad to hear that the package made it lol. I had a nightmare that I got home, and it never got to you lol. I was just gunna ask about it today. Elder Light...he´s so funny lol. He´s in the same group as me. I cant even remember what the chocolates were. I hope you liked them- legit German chocolate. The bible is way cool. It was a gift from a member in Solingen. it was made in 1868, and its way fragile, so DONT TOUCH IT TOO MUCH. The same with the stein. That was a weihnachtsmarkt find for like 25€. Yeah, german zoos are the same. It was way cool, tho. It was only 4€, and there was like no one in the zoo. it was way sweet. D. Todd talked alot about alot of things. I dont have any notes infront of me, but he talked about working with the ward, repentance, Q&A, finding stuff, yeah. And in the German fireside (he had a translator) he talked about how hard times would be coming and how the people (that were at the fireside) said they would see the Lords work fufilled in their lifetime. And pres. Schwartz has been preping us for a "Ship the books" scenario, which is when we evacuate the country. He says hes got a bad feeling. Mal schauen. Transfers. Were staying together. This cycle is only 5 weeks long. Ive only got 3 more after this one. My return date is on August 31st (friday). But we havnt got trunky papers yet. Those should be coming fairly soon. I love Austin lol. I think he´ll do great in Italy. Im kinda jealous. But not really at the same time. I was thinking, Trav will prolly not be able to use my suitcases lol. They´re basically destroyed. Well, one of the wheels on the big one is. The cobbelstone is the worse enemy of missionaries. Itd be sweet to fly out to utah when you drop him off. I could stay with mission buds lol. Hey, you should get me Giselle's address before she goes on her mission thing. Did you know i havnt gotten mail since I was in Mannheim? And you know whats weird about it? it doesnt even bother me anymore lol. I figure, ill be back in like 5 months anyways, and im too busy here, so yeah. funny, gell? As to this week, it wasnt too bad. We had a couple lessons, but still doing alot of finding time. Oh, and between now and August, theres 51 new missionaries coming in. crazy. just like when we came in. But yeah, nothing much to report on. I think thats all I got. Ima go now. Have a nice week! Tschüß!

short letter, going to the zoo today. um, week was good, but slow. we tried to set bapt. date w/ an investigator like 6 times. she´s a dry member, she´s gotta say yes. D. Todd was sweet. there were only like 20-30 missionaries there, so it was pretty personal. Afterwards, i went to pee and one of the couple elders asked me what I thought of it. As I was talking about it, D. Todd came in and peed right next to me. Most awkward moment of my life. I dont think i had ever washed my hands so well after peeing. We held a nice conversation, tho. Yeah, im still in one suit. Ill prolly get a new one in August or something. You know, like, right before I get home. But yeah, he´ll be able to use alot of the stuff I have. Cant think of anything else at the moment. Transfer calls on saturday. Prolly staying here, but I never know anymore. K, gunna go now. Have a great week! tschüß!
