Everything is so different. There are more people, cars, buildings, and fast food
one of the jokes me and Elder Moake had a joke about seeing the mainland and saying. "Hey look, it's America." And now I'm here. So here's the last week:
Last p day - so I sent some pictures of last p day last week, but forgot to talk about it so we went to a park near Deception, a different one and walked around. It was super cool and we found a huge crab. More pics below
Tuesday - this day was packed. Literally spent it all saying bye to people. And had like 6 meals. I was stuffed, but it was so awesome saying bye to everyone and knowing that I loved them so much and that they loved me too. Shout out to the Windsors, Martins, Shupes, BikerBob and Sister Bell, Taira (she is so sweet. She gave me a Lei of shells and nuts, she is so awesome), Hochs, and last but not least the Hymas'. I'm going to miss that ward so much.
Transfer Day - So we couldn't use the ferry
so we drove 2 hrs around and it sucked. We got there and I met my new trainee, but I wasn't listening to where we were going so I was completely clueless for like 3 hrs. But now I'm in the Beverly Park ward in Lynnwood and it's a huge change from island life.

And when I say cleanest I mean cleaned out. They took everything
so despite the lack of food and the small mattresses it was good.
so despite the lack of food and the small mattresses it was good. Our district is small and our area is small but packed. It'll be very interesting to get used to it.
Yo yo - my new comp, Elder Albright, is a great missionary and teacher. He is currently teaching me how to yo yo after 9 and I'm getting pretty good.
Bloopers - so of course with a new area I start to mess up again. First mistake was buying the wrong blades for my razor, second was saying 2 members names wrong in a prayer, and just forgetting a lot of stuff in my last apartment. And those are all I can remember so there's probably more I didn't notice.
Spiritual thought: so I haven't had too many thoughts this last week that I have thought about sharing, but that the Lord can carry you through your transitions in life. When you are changing houses, jobs, or maybe when relationships don't go the way you expect. I know that we each have our paths to take and when we trust in God, He will not leave us to face it alone. I encourage all of you to pray and I know that He can help you feel that peace and comfort. I love you all and I hope you are all doing alright. Talk to ya next week.
