Dear Family,

Hi! Sorry about last week, there was a problem and I wasn't able to deliver my letters to be sent home. So, I'll send it off along with this letter tomorrow. Today's been a lame P-Day. We spent hours on end trying to get to the aunt of the girlfriend of my comp who lives far away, and then the trip back. So now it's 5:00 p.m. and we just got home, I just finished going shopping but I haven't even started my clothes.

Not much happened this week . . . same ole'. Elder Draper was changed Thursday . . . he went to my old area in Puerto Cabello. And the elder who came in, Elder Gomes, came from the other area in Puerto to take Elder Draper's place here. He's pretty cool - a good worker, he speaks english well, and he's from Caracas. It turns out that he's portuguese (Sky, you know what that means!) and that he used to go to Brazil a lot, so I immediately asked him if he knew capoeira. He doesn't :( but he knew exactly what it was and all about it except how to dance it. So I'll see if I can show him a few things. :P

Time ran out.

Chao
