What Up Fam!
Our explorer in the Blue Mountains above Yallahs |
Sorry
I am getting to you now, crazy fun day yesterday but long story short, Elder
Stewart and I got lost in the Blue Mountains and didn't get back in time to
email haha. I basically celebrated my birthday yesterday.
So
just like we thought, I’m being transferred tomorrow! Headed to Spanish
Town. My companion will be Elder Jackson, never met him, not sure what he
looks like, I'm just told he is a goofball so I'm stoked! After some shameless internet stalking, I found that Elder
Jackson is from Pocatello, Idaho!! Can’t wait for them to compare
notes… Anyway I'm kinda excited to be back in a ward (Spain
2nd Ward) that actually functions by itself haha. Although, Yallahs
taught me a TON about accountability and being reliable and stuff.
Here’s the skinny on Spanish Town: Referred to as Spain by the
locals, it is the third largest city of Jamaica, with a population of over
160,000. I was thrilled to see that it comes in as #7 on the “15 Most Dangerous Neighborhoods in the World” list, but Cody’s response was,
“Don't worry, I'm not in the ghetto part, I'm in the richer classier part of
Spain town.” Hmmmm…
I
got a package from Oberg (Cody’s scoutmaster and
former YM President – you da best, Obergs!) a
week ago and it was great! Starbursts, a Mountain Dew Kick Start, some socks
and an awesome purple tie! Haven’t gotten your package yet but I’ll probs get
it tomorrow. WHAT??? You mean that package I sent 28
days ago??? Gotta love the mail system in Jamaica!! Also
thanks for telling everyone and their dog to email me happy bday. I had 57
emails today...but it was great so thank you!!
Love
and miss you guys as always!

Last day with new convert Tamara In true "Cody" style, he gave her all kinds of grief about the posing and photo session!! |
