Short, busy and simultaneously SO boring week! Happy Kiribati
Independence, by the way. It's a week long here, so that was the
entirety of our week. So busy and so just crazy. All of Tarawa was in
Bairiki, the capitol, all week. So all the missionaries were here just
tracting and trying to find lessons. Busy stuff, but resultingly we
only got like 5 lessons the whole week... so that was just driving me
stir crazy.
Tuesday Elder Farley left to go work in Onotoa, the Southernmost
outer island for missionaries. So from Tuesday until today, I've just
been cruising around with the Zone leaders. Their house has air con,
and I got a cold from sleeping there, because I was so not used to it.
I legitimately had a runny nose from sleeping in a room that was 71
degrees. What a difference haha
Independence was just so crazy. They had soccer, volleyball, rugby,
wrestling, weight lifting, running, all kinds of competitions and such
going on all day all week. It was so fun to watch. They also had the
world's sketchiest ferris wheel at the end of the field, and we may or
may not have put all the missionaries on it at once. It was definitely
the most dangerous thing I've ever done in my life. BUT it was so fun.
Other than that, my new companion comes in today in about a half an
hour! I'll ride with the ZL's to the airport and finally meet this
kid. We'll be here on Tarawa til Thursday and then we'll be out on
Abaiang! Who knows when I'll come back in, but I am so excited to
train and so excited to finally get to work on an outer island. Lots
of exciting things going on and so much work to do. I love you all!
Thank you for your support and prayers. I'll talk to you soon!
Love Dal
