Happy 4th of July!

Happy 4th!

Well we went to Tegucigalpa on the 4th for our last reunion de nuevos....which is the last newbie meeting, because they are getting new missionaries from the MTC tomorrow! So I am no longer counted as new. My companion and I wore red, white and blue to celebrate. And everyone thought that was pretty cool.

Our apartment is pretty small, 1 bathroom, kitchen and dinning room are separated by and island slash counter. And we have one really tiny bedroom where we fit 2 beds!

We have a grocery store called a despensa. This is where we do most of our shopping. There a few despensas here in Marcala and they all carry different things. We usually visit all three to get what we need. They carry the typical things, but there is also an outdoor market where we can buy fresh fruit and water shoes. (I have bought 2 pairs of rubber like shoes with holes in them for the rain....and they work really well). But the only thing is that we have to be careful about what we buy in the markets because they use human feces for fertilizer and stuff. Sometimes we are better off to buy that stuff in the market, unless it is something that we can cook, wash, or peel

We have a baptismal date scheduled with family for the last Saturday this month! Please, if you can, keep them in your prayers!

Typically, we only eat things like pancakes, eggs, beans, rice, tortillas, bread, pasta, and I occasionally buy cereal. The milk is different. You don't need to refrigerate it if it's not open, and you can get lactose free milk too. But I never drink it plain because it tastes weird....so I only usually use it in cereal, oatmeal, or pancake mix.

I love you all so much!!!!! Muah!
