Hey everyone!
First of all I'm sorry if my spelling is not the best. The
Mtc is amazing! Here it is called the CCM. Things got crazy
right from the start! it has been nothing but nonstop work. but
man it is amazing! On my first flight to LA they said that they
had a problem with one of the wings but then it passed all the
tests so we ended up flying out on time! Nothing really exciting
happened on the flight. Not even sleep while we flew to
Guatemala. So when we got to the ccm we got to sleep for a
couple hours. I made a couple friends in Utah and met the rest
of my group in LA. My very first flight I got to sit next to
the window and the other two flights were on the isle seat. My
last meal was a $15 sandwich from the airport just about the
cheapest I could find... Before I forget Dad, if you end up
sending a package if you could send a picture of my truck that
would be awesome and maybe if there is one of Clay that would be
awesome! My gate to Guatemala was right next to where we got
off. The plane was pretty cool. We had a tv, movies and games
which I was so "happy" to refrain from... I did take some
pictures. The ones of me on the plane, in the city, the CCM and
I also took a picture of the tire of the bus which made the
tires on the truck look brand new. it had NO tread. like it was
flat, rubber was falling off and there were rips right in the
middle. I'm not sure how it was still on. It is pretty boring
without my phone but we kept busy. The things we do the most
are counting down the time we have till we can eat breakfast
lunch and dinner. and also when we can go to bed. Sleep is
something I wish I had more of because it is really hard to keep
awake. My companero is way cool. He is also about as big as Gary
Callis. We eat lunch with the Latinos and we try and practice
our Spanish with them. Most the time my vocab involves "mas
dispacio" which means slow down, then "que significa" which is
what does that mean and finally "no se" which is idk. so
basically we ask them "renaldo or messi" and then that's it. A
lot of the time I just take a shot in the dark and say "si"
laugh with them and then walk away hoping they didn't ask me
anything weird. Some of the two that we eat with are elder
Garcia and elder Pineda because they are the funniest and can
get mostly what we say. We went to the temple today which was
amazing! Well I don't have any more time to say anything so just
some things to wrap it up. Mom and dad I know you love emailing
me everyday but its really hard to read 7 different emails
talking about the same thing so if you could just write one on
that Monday wrapping up everything you want to tell me that
would be awesome:) then have the kids write me a separate email.
Make sure to send me lots of pictures because that is one of the
most exciting things! Cant wait to write next week!
