Today has been a cool day here in the Dominican -maybe even down to the high 70's. At the Casa where we went for lessons today all of the guest who come to stay and attend the temple were decked out in coats and scarfs around their necks and were still shivering. It was so funny - it was like walking into a different world. It was so humid my face was all sweaty and Jose, the student I worked with today could not believe I was hot because he was freezing. He said he had no desire to visit us in Utah during the winter. It is just so hard to keep track of time when every day is the same and you have always lived with four seasons.
Our elevator is finally working!! But when we came home from lessons the water in the bathroom was not running - still isn't. I guess they started working on it and the worker got tired and went home. That's how things are here. It's the first time I have actually him voice disgust with what goes on, or doesn't go on, in our apartment. "Can't we go one day with everything working?"
Of course we can't. He should know that by now......
There is a guagua that stops outside of our window on the street that plays "Oh Suzannah" in horn music when he pulls in. What a refreshing change!
I have wanted to include a picture of Pres. and Sister Anderson, Area President who is over us, so here is one from Thanksgiving dinner:
