2 Months Already!!
 Well it has definitely been the fastest 2 months of my whole life! I cant believe I turn 19 tomorrow! That seems crazy to me! Well anyway, this week was great! As far as the work we have found a couple of perfect investigators to start teaching! I'm excited to start teaching a solid investigator this week! Also, this week was cool because the other district had a baptism, which was awesome! And other than that there isn't too much to write about other than some crazy stuff that happened!  So, one morning I was out on the balcony, I think it was Tuesday morning and I had just woken up. So, I walk out on my balcony and look out over the street and I saw this woman walking across the street when all of a sudden a car slammed on their brakes and almost hit her! I was like, oh she is so lucky! then all of a sudden another car hit that car and forced it to smash into the lady! I was seriously in disbelief! My companion and I both saw it and didn't know what to do since we were both just out of bed and we were on the fifth story of our apartment, We could tell there was no blood and it looked like she was fine, then she fainted and fell to the ground, there were like 30 people all surrounding her and trying to help her out, she was just laying in the street for a half hour before the ambulance finally arrived.  If that wasn't crazy enough there was a fight for some reason and the police didn't do anything about it !! I wanted to help so bad, but I couldn't have really helped much since I don't really speak their language yet! Well anyway, it was just incredible what I saw! Other than that there hasn't been too much going on, other than people spraying us in their cars when it rains here because the streets and sidewalks are really narrow!  Also, the construction work is pretty strange here because they just cut metal in the middle of the street and there will be sparks flying everywhere!!  The members here are awesome! This week I have realized that all of the fruit here is incredible! They eat it here for dessert, which makes sense because it is truly delicious here! Well I also tried my first foccacia which is this pizza like thing with whole tomatoes on it and that was incredible! For as much of the crazy stuff that happens here I think the people make up for it with their amazing culture and food!  I hope everyone has a good week! Please continue to write me!

Foccacia!
