4/8

Hey everybody! Conference was awesome! On Saturday night we watched the Saturday morning session live. Then on Sunday we watched priesthood taped.  Then Saturday afternoon taped, then Sunday morning live, and then this morning we watched Sunday afternoon. We had to go to Lille to watch it, but we got to watch it in English. We spent the night in Lille with a bunch of missionaries. It was kinda outta control. All of the questions that I had where answered during conference.

That's really sad about the chicken with no feet.  (It died this weekend.)
 
There are 22 members in this branch, but it is pretty much just 3 big families. From what I've seen of St. Omer I really like it. The average age of the citizens here is like a billion. Its pretty cold. We cant see the ocean, but we can feel the freezing wind.

(I found this on Google Images,
 I think this may be the cathedral he was talking about,
I hope he sends a real photo sometime soon.)
My new comp is from Layton ,Utah. His name is Elder H_____. This is his last transfer, so I'm "killing" him. Its going to be fun. He's really good at being a missionary because he's been one for like 2 years. There are no buses or anything, or a mission car, so we walk EVERYWHERE. The coolest thing about this city is that there is a collapsing cathedral. it looks like Gondor after it got attacked.
 
It took us like 2 and a half hours to get here. France has the fastest trains in the world.

There are some glasses stores here. Were getting some today.

The numbers in the picture (that I shared last week) are for what number transfer we are in.

I got a letter on Friday here in St Omer, so the address is right.

So St. Omer is really cool. We have some really solid amis that we can see often. So I'm really excited to get things going here.

The worst thing about this town is our shower is pink and has butterflies painted on it.

One of the people we teach smokes A LOT and we are going to scrub her apartment with a couple members.

I'm pretty far from Paris.  (Andrew asked him how close he was to Paris.)
