Dad gave the talk at the Tienda Nueva congregation (the one we will be in) on Saturday, and then again at 8am and 9am Sunday.


Also, I have now proved that I can actually make platanos (fried plantains) without burning down the kitchen. I hope you are proud Linda :)

They have chickens for the eatin' in the back yard so we ate some [very] fresh chicken. It's interesting to wake up and see chickens hanging upside down in the yard (to be bled).



The hot dogs here (perro caliente..lol its literally the spanish words for hot [caliente] and dog [perro]) are amazing. They are loaded up with chips and sauce and cheese. Contrary to what Steph's face looks like it is feeling in the picture, she actually thought they were delicioso!
