Doing a bit of travelling day after day...

8/19/08
haha don'T worry dad, you will probably be able to beat me when i get home (golf), but only for a few days, then i will be back in the "swing" of things :)

so our investigators are still on vacation, at least till sunday, we have to call them today and see if we can set up appointments with them for later this week.

so speaking of interviews and zone conference, check this out:
- Last Thursday: We went to Budapest (3 hour train ride there, 3 hour back...) for Zone Conference

- Last Friday:Went to Kaposvár which is a good 1 1/2 hour bus ride there and the same back... for itnerviews.

- Then I got a call sometime last weekend that I had to go to budapest on monday.. so yesterday we went up again! we went becasue we had to do some sort of residency permit thing. all missioanries that get around their year markl have to go to the budapest immigration office and do some paper work, then we go back 6 weeks alter and get a stamp on our pass ports that say we are legal here for a few more years or something, so i did that yestardy... I thought I wouldn't have to till next transfer.

Tomorrow (wednseday) is the biggest hungarian holiday. it is one of their independence days, kind of like our fourth of july, but this one to them is the biggest one. If you ahve ever heard of the Duna air show where planes fly under the bridges and race up the Duna river, that is happening tomorrow, unfortunately, i can'T go see them, becasue we are too far away, but maybe next year, we did however see one plane yesterday practice going under the bridge and such, it was sooooooo coooool!!!! i hope next year i am somewhere close!

so we have been busy with stuff lately, and that's why i didn'T get to email yesterday...
sounds like the olympics have been going well, we watched a tiny bit today in the little restaraunt we went to for lunch, we saw a hungarian guy beat a french guy in ping pong :) it was tight! ya, cseh lászló is the hungarian swimmer who is pretty good :) and the hungarians let us know that :)

so lately i have been having to play the piano in sacrament meeting, it has been an aventure to say the least... in the hungarian hymn book, there is only like 30 hymns, so when i can only play a few of them... we get a lot of repeats... so the little chorister says, what do you want to play and i say, i don'T know, and then she proceeds to pick a few and says, you ahve time to learn them!!! ha!!! so i have had to learn a few new ones out here...

thigns are going well though, me and D... are working ahrd and having a fun time at it, our transfers are on the 3rd of september, so we don't know if we are staying or what is going on, nothing was "revealed" in interviews, so we will see :) well, i love you all and i will talk to ya next week!!!
