Our day started at a salt mine. We put on miner clothing and took a train into the mine. The best part of the tour was riding down slides in the mine to get to a new level. Andrew held Eliza close as we zoomed down 40 meters.
This past Sunday, we attended Stake Conference. Again I was surprised that I was truly happy to see Elder Taylor at the meeting. He is from Pleasant Grove and his older brother actually served in a district with Andrew during his mission to Frankfurt. I had to laugh (he knows perfectly well that my German is terrible) when Elder Taylor approached me, because he rambled off in German thinking that I knew what he was saying. After a minute or two, I kindly reminded him that I don't speak German and if he could please tell me why he was so full of enthusiasm in English - I'd appreciate it.
Oh, and then! (*Gasp for air) Following Stake Conference, I bumped into an Elder from my home Stake in SLC - Go Canyon Rim!! Small world...This cute girl skipped on over to me with a giant snail in her hand. Without any hesitation, she gave the snail a big kiss. She then said, "Ein bissen schleimig aber vitaminsreich." Andrew burst out laughing. And when I asked him for the translation he said, "A bit slimey... but rich in vitamins!"
That about wraps it up... oh wait, one more thing! The "open door policy" that I mentioned in a previous post applies to cats too. I was in the restroom when suddenly, a cat walked in. That caught me off guard completely. It was one of those moments where you wish someone was there to experience the randomness of it with you. Do you know what I'm talking about?
Gute Nacht!!
