Internet Maps at Gas Stations?

Tracting a new city with a map fresh off the internet from the corner gas station. Oh my, times have really changed! Some favorite foods and faithfully tracting to the last door yields desired results.

Hey dad!

so we did go to our new city this week, we decided to try the bus route for our first time, so we could see actually how far we needed to go instead of "rambo-ing" in there without knowing anything... the new city is really pretty and looks nice, we only had time to do a little tracting, but we did walk all over it trying to find a map of the city and we finally got one at the gas station and the gas station guy had to print one off the internet for us :) we will be making the trip on bike about 2 times a week...

the bike is now fixed we think... Z... gave us a new bolt looking thing and put my pedal back on, and straightened most of the stuff back out, so it should be just fine, i guess we'll find out though :)

the language is coming along i can undestand the main point of what people are saying now... that helps out a lot :) mostly i study vocab now and sometimes the grammar rules, becasue it is a must... hungarians pull out some crazy grammar on you sometimes and it's fun to figure out how it all works out.

some of the best food i've had is stuffed peppers and stuffed cabbage, they stuff them with like rice, meat and then they cook the peppers in like a sweeter tomato juice and they cook the cabbage in just like water, but it is soooo good! they also make this yummy stuff that translated into english is called like "layered potatoes" or Rakot Krumpli, and it is eggs, potatoes and kolbász (like pepeperoni, but way more flavorful) and they slice it all up and layer is in a big pot and cook it, it is so good!

one cool thing that happened to us this week was that we were tracting this building and one lady who let us into the building didn'T want us to knock on her door, so we skipped hers and my comp didn't think we needed to do the last door, so he went down the stairs and i stopped and said, let's just do it for fun, no one is probably home, but oh well, let's just finish off the building. well, after some convincing he came back upstairs and we knowcked and guess what? A) someone was home and B) they let us in :) so we got a new investigator :) haha a little faith builder for me and a lesson to knock on every door :)

sounds ike thigns are goin well over there in the U:S. i guess i get to call home in a few weeks and see how you alla re doing :) i don'T know when mothers day is, but i get to call home then :) it wil be so cool!

well, i love ya all and i will talk to ya later!

love ya tons!
