One more story from this week. One day this elder I've never met before, happened to be standing right behind me when Courtney (my good friend) walked behind me. Poor soul. I flipped around to talk to Courtney and instead was surprised to see this elder. Unfortunately I was already starting to speak. We made eye contact as the words "i love you"  came very loudly out of my mouth. He then got like bright red and said something about how he lost his companion and walked away rather quickly.  And of course that was in front of all of my best friends here. Anziano Dunn, Anziano Empey, Anziano Lambardi, and of course Sorella Pacheco. We were laughing so hard.

Ciao!! This week was an adventure! For those of you keeping tabs on the Italian/ French feud, there has been a surprising change! After the tours stopped, they set up two Volleyball courts! We have united and now are allies taking out the Americans, Japanese and the Koreans with our amazing volleyball skills.  (we actually are really good, who knew foursquare would help with my volleyball skills, lol) In other news, there was a time this week where it seemed like my passport and visa had been lost and I was going to have to stay stateside for another 6 weeks, or longer.  Fortunately through prayer and an amazing worker at the MTC travel office, my travel stuff was located!  (basically I got an email one morning (from the person who was supposed to have my passport/ visa) asking for a picture of my passport/ visa.  Considering that Sorella Ewing had just been told that she was going to be going to Washington for 6 weeks because of a similar issue ...
