Last Tour






I think the Elders were experiencing cabin fever yesterday as they all called and wanted to know what we were doing for the day. They all wanted to go somewhere together. I kept asking where they wanted to go but no one had an idea so I settled on the one tour I knew none of them had been on and yet was close because we had to be in Reykjavík in the evening for a Relief Society class to demonstrate new.familysearch.org. It is always fun to be together with the Elders. When it comes to teaching they do a great job and when it comes to having fun they know how to do it and it is just fun to be around them. Of course touring always involves eating too. Elder Ellsworth is enjoying his favorite - pylsur or as we would call it - a lamb hot-dog. The picture of the Elders sitting and standing is on a bridge that spans the two continents of America and Europe. We do have one more preparation day but who knows what the weather holds and we move out of our apartment on the Thursday following so we will be busy getting everything ready.

After the meeting we discovered it had been snowing and we had a couple of inches on the ground and it snowed all the way home. This morning we were greeted with several inches of snow but worse is the 1 to 2 foot high drifts due to the heavy winds. The drift outside our door is up to my knees. Eileen is supposed to make apple pies for tonight YSA activity in Reykjavík and also teach a member more about using new.familysearch.org but if this snow keeps up we won´t be going.

I still question whether you guys are truly on a mission or just having fun...
I'm just kidding...
