π No one can stop the Party Bus! π
Most of this week was spent traveling, so starting Tuesday we began our fun road trip of way too many hours in a bus. π We began by traveling to Olanchito to meet up as a zone. We all took the same bus headed towards Progreso, which was free from the mission. We mostly talked on the bus and hung out a bit, before arriving in Progreso. π We stayed the night in the Zone Leader's house there, with Elder Dayton, and a couple of other Elders. The next morning, we woke up early to travel to La Lima, for the Conference.
This conference was the biggest Conference they've had in a long time, with the entire mission there too. We got to listen to President, his wife, Elder Godoy, and his wife. It was pretty good. They talked a bit on finding the elect and some other useful insights. Then, we hung out a but before starting the long journey home.
We took a bus headed for Ceiba, since we weren't gonna be able to make it to Olanchito that day. We stayed with the Elders of Buenos Aires, which was a really different area. ⛰️ Their area is full of hills and streets like compact New York streets. π Their house also had AC and heated water. ♨️ That was the first hot shower I've had in all my mission. πΏ The next morning, we took a bus to Olanchito, and started heading home.
The other big thing that happened this week, was we had 2 baptisms. π The first was our buddy IsaΓas, and the other was a kid named David. They were pretty cool, and seemed pretty excited, both before and after their baptisms. We have 1 other baptism for Jancarlos, but that's been rescheduled for this upcoming Sunday.
In total, I believe we've traveled over 24 hours in just a bus this week. We do get to see a lot of different sites, but sitting all day is honestly more tiring than walking all day. π΄ Hopefully this next week we don't have as many bus rides.
