Well, the world cup is pretty legit. All the Latinos here are super sad. Spain could very well lose tonight, and this whole country could just be like it was in the Great Depression. Well if Spain lost most of the Latinos would be pretty happy. So who knows. But yeah, if Spain goes to the finals, we are going to buy jerseys and face makeup and a Spain flag. Ha, ha.

News on the metro strike, it is still at 50%. So there are trains, just if you miss it, you have to wait a long time. But at least the people are a little happier.

The greatest story about Romanians. We have this golden investigator, who lives in a little pueblo far away, and there are only like 1000 people there. So, when she ended up falling through, we were just knocking doors in the little pueblo and some guy answers the door and says, I don't understand Spanish, in Spanish, but with a Romanian accent. So, I just was all like, prefect! How are you doing? Everything going good? My name is Elder Dunn. What's yours? He said a swear word in Spanish and then slammed the door. Ha, ha. So I can have a very basic conversation in Romanian. It's a super hard language. It isn't pronounced like it is spelled, so it's hard to learn.

Some good stories of this week. We are about to go in our house for the night, but there were these two old people on a bench outside, so we decided to contact them. It was super funny because as soon as we started talking to them, I swear out of nowhere appeared 5 of their friends. And they just had a million questions for us. Two of them said they want to take a tour of the temple and we were able to teach like the entire plan of salvation. Anyway, we got home late but it was a super sweet contact.

One more story and I am going to play Frisbee, first time in more than a year, wahoo! Anyway, one day we were walking down the street and this like 17-18 year old Spanish girl walks by us super fast then does a double take and starts giggling. You also have to understand my companion is 6 foot 5 and just calls attention a lot. So, we started talking to her as we walked down the street, and she ended up being super interested. It's definitely weird who you would think has interest and who ends up having interest. But we are going to try and starting teaching her too. But yeah, the work is progressing. Mission is great. The first kid in my grade arrived home sometime ago. That is a little weird to think about. Jon will be home in like 4 months. Weird stuff. Anyway, stay pretty
