| Abandoned bull fighting stadium |
 |
| Spider nest in my hair! |
So this last week has gone super awesome! Me and my comp
are getting along great, the district is working hard, and the members
are happy, and investigators are progressing! What more could you ask
for?
Happy Halloween everyone back at home! If you
were all wondering, no, we don't celebrate Halloween out here in
Mexico.... Everyone out here thinks Halloween is a day to worship the
devil, so they don't celebrate it. Which is kind of sad.... However
they do celebrate day of the dead! Which is basically the same thing as
Thanksgiving here, but more focused in on their family who have passed
away. And there are piñatas!
This week we're going
to be having a branch party for the day of the dead, that will basically
be like the Halloween parties back at home. There will be games, a
message given about the family history work, food and piñatas! That's
the best part about every holiday here in Mexico, there's always a piñata
there! Even for Christmas!
The culture is
always something amazing to learn about, their views on everything is a
whole lot different than ours! However, the wonderful part about our
country is that its made up of tons of different cultures, so we can
experience it all!
This past week I found an old stadium for
bull fighting..... Sadly that's illegal here now..... Also, this
morning I was attacked by a giant spider, it was mostly in my
hair......
Love you guys!
