I'm baking like a toasted cheeser here! February 6, 2012

Hey Fam!
     Its been a good one, the pictures are from last week, forgot to
send them, but thats embalse. super cool place. if you can see the
tower in the back ground of the one, one of these weeks were gonna get
the other elders from the district and go to embalse to go up that
tower and take pictures, im excited.
    So this week we had another cool thing there. just this big hill
we hiked up, through the thick south american jungles, and met a man
on top, who was cutting weeds. he said we can come back and teach him
sometime, so you know we will be. even if he doesnt let us in, the
view was worth it.
      Speaking of jungles, meybe i havent told you, but its hot out,
and way humid. Today we went to Rio Tercero and the 4 of us played
basketball, and within 5 minutes we were absolutly drenched in sweat,
just drenched, in the eyes, pouring down the face, dripping off the
nose and chin. it was like a gatorade commercial but without the
subliminal messages. We had alot of fun though, and were ready to go
kick some butt this week.
       As far as things go, not much new. i tried figs for the first
time, we ate them right off a tree, pretty dang tasty if i do say so
myself. This saturdays movie night was 17 miracles, and none of our
investigators came, but a bunch of members did, and i think these
activities are finally starting to take effect, cause sunday the first
counciler stood up and said like "everyone should be going to these
activities, theyre awsome and the Elders are working hard on them, and
it makes us way more ready to come to church the next day" so that was
pretty cool, that was the first time they ever announced it a week
before. sad thing is, were out of movies! haha, im gonna try to get
permission for us to watch the work in the glory if i cant get ahold
of anything else, i guess we´ll see eh? also, Argentine cinema is
terrible, so they really have no problem watching the same thing
multiple times. the church movies are like oscar winners to them jaja,
seriously. Ill be like yeah, its like legacy, but not as corny, and
they good this look on there face like "you didnt LOVE legacy?" so its
funny. and i guess, speaking for legacy, the girls voice isnt as
annoying in spanish, and thats at least half of what drove me crazy.
          So i hope everyone is doing good, love you all and hope to
hear from you soon. im sure youre just about done with those huge
letters youve been writing me and thats why its been a while, but
thats fine, im nothing if not patient.
     Love, Elder Bridge
