What happened anyway?

Hello,

First off, sorry about last week, p-day sucked, but the rest of last week was good. This week was hard and kind of sucky too, but I´m trying to learn how to be happy in bad circumstances.

Questions:

Do you have "High Occupancy Vehicle" lanes down "south"?

There exists no such thing here in Perú, nor even pedestrian right of way. No, the way things work down here is, if I can get in front of you, I will, and if I´m a bus, I will cut across 2-3 lanes of traffic within 5 seconds to get to my bus stop from the middle lane. And no one cares if an emergency vehicle is coming down the street, they´ll just keep going as if nothing were going on. It´s quite interesting to watch. But no, there´s no HOV lane here in the least.

NEWS:

They all thought that Saturday was the end of the world or at least that there´d be an earthquake here in Cusco, nothing... absolutely nothing but overcast skies. I survived AGAIN!!!

Other things, I got a haircut 2 weeks ago, Elder Lewis´ first time cutting hair. And he did good. We also made peach cobbler, that was really good! They have Chimichurri here, it reminds me of chim chimminy chim chim churri...

We´re going to have a Chapel Open House here on the 14th of October, and we have banners and all! It´ll be sweet!

I hit 17 months. I´m old, I´d be dead this transfer if I were a sister.

I cooked pancakes in the office and really big ones today. (family, please send the Frisbee picture to Andrew Reeves, he´ll appreciate it)

We all got wet yesterday in the rain, Elder Fawcett and Elder Pinedo got soaked.

We worked pretty good in the sector. More investigators, but no time now.

Take care, love you all!
