6-27-2011, 16 days!

"Only 16 days!! I don't know how it's possible but the weeks keep flying by faster and faster. We have been crazy busy. We have found a lot of good new investigators and i'm not sure if any of them will be baptized before i leave but i truly believe they will be baptized soon after i leave. They are just to good to not join the church. I wish i would have found them sooner so i could teach them longer and to see them enter into the waters of baptism. The trip last week was amazing. We were up in the Albanian Alps and it was beautiful. We ended up staying in this log house they had up there and it was actually very warm with the most comfortable beds i've slept on in over 2 years =). I don't even know where to start beginning to tell you about the trip. It was a long drive up there since we left at 4:30 in the morning and got up there at 3. Me and another elder took off as soon as we got there to go hiking up in the hills and we had a blast. We found all those wild strawberries and we were high enough that there was snow up where we were. After awhile we decided to go back down and met up with the other Elders but that was after we crossed that awesome rickety old bridge =). I thought i was going to fall in but it turned out to be pretty sturdy. The trip home was ridiculous because we took a wrong turn somewhere and were on this one lane road on the edge of this mountain and it took us 8 hours to get back to Tirana,lol, and from there i had another 2 hours to Fier. It was so long!! But i made the most of it and since i was sitting in the front i asked him to stop every 30 miles or so to get out and check out the scenery and walk around.... I have tons more stuff that happened but my minds just racing thinking that i only have 16 days left and then i'll be able to tell you about it in person...."
