Fun times on P-day

Today (01/17/09) we went to a museum of natural history. It was good with interesting things, and it was just good to get out and relax and walk around a little bit. Click here for more pics.

Then we came back and we ate trout. Well I don’t know if you know this, but I’m not a big fish guy. It was pretty good, but now my stomach hurts, haha.... oh well.

Last night we had a sleepover, haha. Elder Sandy and I took our beds into the room of Elder Bagley and Sanchez, and then we put up walls and a roof with blankets, and we were like little kids again, haha. It was like old times, sleeping out with friends, talking, and falling asleep. It was good.

Park of the Legends

"We went to the zoo today (Saturday, 11/29) and I forgot to put on sun block. I'm a little red, but I'm good. Here are some pics."

*Zoological Park of the Legends
This park offers countless numbers of mammals, birds, reptiles, fish and amphibians. The animals are divided by their natural region of Peru: coast, mountains and jungle.

P-days in the Jungle

Last P-day we played Ultimate Frisbee at the church. We didn't play very long, because it is hot. Then we went back to our rooms. Pretty lame, but oh well.. Today we're going to eat ice cream and then clean and get ready for our interviews this Wednesday. Nothing too exciting yet. I'll let you know.

P-day Fun

You may remember a week or two ago, Landon wrote home that he and Elder Dallin Peterson (Kaysville) had met with their zones for an early morning futbol game. Here are some pics.......

Roger was really surprised at the uniforms, and he asked Landon about it in a letter. Here is what Landon had to say about the whole thing.....

"To answer your questions.. our zone bought them (the soccer uniforms) in Lima, for 14 soles ($4.66) for all of it.. Shorts and a Jersey, it's awesome… You like them I know, haha.. Heck yes we won the game… Do you ever know me to lose? haha Just kidding, but no, we really did win… it was a battle, but it was fun…. Ya, I know I'm skinny, haha, but don’t worry, I'm in good health.. I'm not in shape by any means, and I don’t have any kind of muscle in my body, haha, but I'm in good health.. Let's just say I'll be coming home and lifting the little baby weights.."

Mega Plaza

On P-days, the missionaries are sometimes able to do a little shopping at Mega Plaza.

"It's like the mall. It has a food court and all the outlet stores, and a grocery store and games and a movie theater. But no pasa nada, because as missionaries we can't do anything like that, haha."
