Welcome back. I'm in the Bluff now, after a very hectic couple of days.
It all started off with us missionaries leaving lesotho *tears* and then driving to Bloemfontein, where I stayed the night with Elders Walker and Whiting. The next morning, A load of missionaries got in the Ford Ranger with Elder Hicks (from Blackfoot) and drove down to Bethlehem to hitch a ride on the Durban Express. It is really nice not being new in the field, because it makes meeting missionaries a whole lot less awkward. We Got on the Durban express then headed to durban on a really long drive. There were one 4 of us in the Express, so we had lots of leg room. The GPS for some reason took us on a weird detour and we found ourselves on a dirt road, Meaning our bags on the trailer behind us got covered in dirt. NEXT, it started to rain, so the dirt on our bags turned into mud. now my bag is covered in mud so I am pretty happy about that.
When we got to Durban, I was taken to the Pinetown boarding to meet my companion Elder Atkinson, and also Elders Chen and Chiromo. This is not the boarding we are to stay in for the transfer, but we are staying here until our boarding in Bluff opens up later this week. President Thompson granted us with a car so that we don't have to buy a taxi everyday to get to our area, so that is a pretty big blessing.
The first day in Bluff we walked around for about 5 minutes and found ourselves on a giant staircase that led to the indian ocean, so I will give some pics with that.
The area is pretty cool. All walks of life, including these little monkeys that kinda just run around everywhere. The community around us is very rich, so nobody will let us in. It is a big change from Lesotho where it is almost like people are begging us to visit them haha. No matter, we will find a way. We are gonna depend a lot on our ward to give us referrals, which should be no problem because this ward is seriously on fire when it comes to member missionary work.
Things are starting to heat up here. Both the weather and the work. I just hope that the work gets hotter than the weather, or else we will be miserable. Stay tuned for how things go this week! Love youz guys!
