Hello everyone!

This week was pretty good.

the biggest thing is that this tuesday we are going to get a baptisimal date with Alexander!! I'm VERY excited and kinda nervous. it will be really good and hope everything goes thrugh.

I had sushi for the first time a few hours ago. it was kinda good, pretty weird but good. and chop sticks are weird. Missionaries in Asia must be pros with those stupid sticks.

Right now I'm in Helsingborg with workoevers with the zone leaders there. They are about 1½ train ride away so we went to visit them for p-day! I can ALMOST see denmark from where I'm sitting. There is a big boat in the way.

My mom and Nati are in Guatumala right now helping out furture missionaries with their dental work! It sounds like they are having a really good time serving them and getting them ready. I'm sure proud of them for doing that! they are pretty awesome!!!

In a few days is Valborg, its a big holiday here, welcoming summer, so everyone burns all their garbage and stuff and the city has a huge fire and stuff. And everyone is drunk and out of control.... so we have been advised to avoid the main places. Might be a really boring few days, locked in our appartment because Babylon really goes crazy. Every weekend is a mess of drunk people and crazys.

Erica does not want to meet anymore. Maybe in 2 months she said, after she is done with this govermental course on how to feel better about yourselves. we'll see.

I went on splits to Karlskrona this week! It was so awesome! I went with Elder Dixon, he is one of my best friends out on the mission. he is a really great guy. We've been in the same district for 7 MONTHS! long time. Well we talked all about technology and plans for when we get back home, he goes to BYU also, and is going to major in film making. he is really good at all that stuff. So maybe we will team up for some things. He is awesome. Missionaries know splits is kinda a time to vent and talk to someone else, then the normal person you are glued to. It was pretty awesome. I feel like I learned alot from him, and we understand eachother pretty well.

We taught a less active guy from from Zimbabue, that was pretty cool. He was so cool! I love africans and all immigrants. I feel like i could be their best friend after 5 minutes of talking. they are pretty cool.

We also visited a castle this week, it was cool. And now we are in Helsingborg so we will probably walk around and see some more stuff. We sure take alot of this european stuff for granted. Not every day you stroll down cobblestone roads with yellow old buildings all around speaking some crazy language.

Tack för allt ni gör!
