Week 9

When I was in the MTC we´d occasionally meet people from Colombia or Ecuador or Honduras and always when we´d tell them that we were headed to Panama they´d get this grave look in their eyes and say ´Panama is hot´ and we´d laugh and they would just look at us and walk away. But now that I´m here I understand why they didn´t laugh with us. Now, if you asked me about Panama, I too would get a grave look in my eyes. Panama is hot. Also very humid. Also people burn their trash on the street so it always smells like fire? Yeah. Also we were in a taxi one day and we found out that we´re 5 minutes from the ocean?? Who knew! 

I don´t have a ton to say about this week. It went by SUPER quick but it was a little tougher than the other two cause EVERYONE is gone to the ínterior for Semana Santa or to the city for work. Lots of rejection. Lots of sun. Especially Saturday. What an oof of a day. But it´s ok. 

Also a funny thing is we got bagels and everyone is SUPER enamored by them. They´re like ´donut?´and we´re like ´no it's not sweet, it's like bread´ and then they just stare at them and touch them like they´re from outer space. Also this is super off topic but I always say cocodrilos when I mean cucarachas and always makes for a wild ride. 

OK I think I have nothing else to say. Except OHH today was the saddest P day ever cause the STLs called us last night and told us we had to go to Panama in the morning for my visa so we got up at 3 a.m. and went all the way to Panama just to find out they made a mistake and so we turned around and went home and we lost lots of P day time.  

Also I hit my 2 months mark on Saturday and Hermana Strong hit her 5 months on Sunday so we had a little party today and bought ice cream and FANNY PACKS to celebrate. 

Have a great week I love you all :):)

Don´t be scandalized by the picture of my back !! It was just super funny cause I wore a shirt one day that had a key hole and I didn´t realize so I got a sunburn and it looks STUPID and its funny
