hello fam. how is everyone. i am great, getting used to my new area. on wednesday we had a transfer meeting, i found out that i would being going to an area called Açailândia, Imperatriz. it is about nine hours away from Belém. wednesday i had to catch a bus at nine at night so after the meeting ended i went with some of the other miss´s and we ate at pizza hut, for a little bit i felt like i was at home, i ate a whole large pizza by myself, pretty cool huh. after wards we went to the bus station and waited forever. while we were wating there was a guy playing guitar so i went over and talked to him for a while and he let me play a little, afterwards i talked to him about the church and what we do as missionaries, it was pretty cool. our bus arrived at nine and i arrived in my area at about five in the morning. i tried to sleep as much as i could on the bus but it was a little hard becasue the raod was horrible, it was like driveing on a wash board for eight hours, but i finally got to my new area, it was still dark, my new comp, Elder Pereira, picked me up and we walked to our house and slept for a while. i am really liking this new area, the members are awsome and the are is beautiful, with lots of farms, lots of hills. they have a branch here instead of an ward, but our goal is to find more men so that they can have a ward here. oh i recieved the box, thanks for the peanut butter, the shirt and ties are awsome, unfortunatly i can´t use the looney tunes tie, but the other tie with the climber is Bacana. well that was my week, exciting huh. thank you for everything, i love yall so much.Elder Tafoya oh the picture of the soda is a drink called Gaurana Jesus, they only sell it here in Maranão, it tasts like bubble gum and is pink. i will send you guys some.
