Another week has gone by...

So with this past week I went on 2 exchanges (switching companions for 24 hours) and it was my first time to leave Florida in nearly 3 months. I have to say it was super nice to go to Township again. Don't get me wrong, town is nice where everyone washes hands and there's food places out the wazoo, but township people have such a nice humble feel to them.

The first was on Tuesday. It was nice to go with the Amazingly funny Zone Leader named Ratsimbizafy. He's one of my favourite Elders here. We had a blast rolling through the township teaching all of their investigators and even giving a priesthood blessing. Then we went over to their dinner appointment and I got to see him get sjamboked by the 19 yr old for almost being late. That girl had so much sass, I swear! I couldn't stop laughing.

Then I went to Soweto, the biggest township in Africa. I got to have another Kota while I was there, but I made sure to stick to only just one. I will not be getting chubby cheeks, no way! Also got to teach the stake president's mom while I was there. That was pretty legit.

Then I came back to florida. I love florida, don't get me wrong. This area is awesome and cool, I just don't feel like I'm in africa anymore while I'm here. Township and village is where you really get a feel for what Africa is like.

So anyways, Momo (that super powerful investigator incase you didn't remember because you didn't read last weeks email. You break my heart for every email you don't read) accepted a date to be baptized on. It's gonna be super cool for some Elders  down the road who baptize her. I don't think I'm going to be around for it though. I just have that feeling.

Anyways, so I also heard some legends about other missionaries who have been here. It's always nice to hear the stories of those elders before me.

Here I am in Africa still. I can not believe it's already been 7 months. Time flies. I've said it a million times before, and I'll say it a million times after. Mission really does fly. I can't believe it. 

Also, if you guys wanna keep me posted on the Olympics, I would love you forever. no joke. I gotta know how the BACK TO BACK WORLD WAR CHAMPIONS are doing.

Also, here's a ton of pictures incase you were missing me.

I'll be home in  no time it seems. This mission can't slow down either from what I can tell.

Stay awesome everyone. Don't die. And eat Tacos. Tacos don't exist here. I know, it's depressing.
