I went on an exchange to Cabildo. It was interesting. We lost the phone on the bus. We ran back and forth to the bus station hoping someone found it and turned it in. Cabildo is supposedly the leading producer of avocados in the world according to the Chileans. There were avocado trees everywhere. I really wanted to eat a couple of them. I love avocados.
Elder Brown and I have been having a blast! One of our investigators came to church. "C", our investigator with a baptismal date, didn't come to church but a group of Haitians did! I'm actually thinking about learning Creole even though I'm still learning Spanish. There are so many Haitians here. All I've met are super humble and try to keep the commandments -- including the law of chastity which can be a stumbling block for many in joining the Lord's church.
Sunday we had the coach from the local American football team try to recruit us to his football team. Ha ha. That's not why we are here.
We have bikes in our sector and mine broke. I might be on the hook for repairs. The gear shifting mechanism broke. The bike shop said it would be about $15.00 to replace. Our sector is huge and flat, so bikes work great. It's fun to ride and not have to walk all the time.
By the way, La Calera is pronounced as La Ca-lead-da. It is a hard Spanish rule that a single "r" pretty much gets pronounced as an English "d".
