I am here at the mission training center in
Brazil! hahaha the plane in Fargo had a problem with the left engine so we
sat on the runway for an extra hour and a half so I missed my second flight but
it was easy to get the new flights. It seems like a couple hours ago I said
good bye to all of you. Im in a trio here with two girls from Utah but I think
there will be two more Brazilian girls in our dorm I hope so we will see! There
is a count down clock showing how much time you have left on the computer. So
on the flight to mineapolis, I sat next to an older gentleman and we
talked and he had researched the Church lots because he thought the
history of the church is very interesting, although he assured me a couple
times that he liked being Protestant haha. But I was a little nervous because
of the delayed plane and talking with him about the Church was such a
blessing because afterwards I felt so much calmer. Also, the guy who printed me
off a new flight schedule had a daughter that served in Brazil on a mission too
small world! The weather here is low 60s but with a little humidity it
feels very nice. It is the winter here, so it will probably get very hot in the
summer. São Paulo is on a plateu so the elevation makes São Paulo cooler than
Rio even though Rio is pretty close. The buildings here are concrete looking
and very close together. When we were driving to the MTC It was busy on the
roads and motorcycles were zooming in between the lanes. The cars here are
generally smaller as well. I´m so excited to get speakin some
Portuguese!!!!!
