2nd week in Italy

Ciao a tutti, 
I  don't know our  address ill give it to you next week. ya the duomo took over 500
hundred years to build and it is amazing i can't believe i was
actually there! but i forgot my camera. the city of mantova is just
south of verona and verona has a arena like the colleseum but a lot
smaller of course and is is where juliet lives from romeo and juliet
and i have a pic of her and me because there is a statue and there are
hearts everywhere with peoples names in them because its a love story
haha. and i have taught like 43 lessons in the two weeks i have been
here and we have 5 baptisimal dates and we should have another baptism
soon because the people left for vacation and are back and all of them
were baptized except the dad and he will probably get baptized! i
don't know if i can get a cd i will see. and the ceapest camera i have
seen that is is 99 euro and is is pretty good though it takes hd
videos and has 14 megapixels so that is maybe around 120 or so in
american. ya i can buy a suitcase here and i will need one because a
transfer is every 6 weeks and i could go to another city or stay for
another 6 weeks usually every says you stay in a city for 3 transfers.
we went in to some fashion shops and tryed on some suit clothes and
gelato is amazing which means icecream but it is just so much better
than american ice cream. also i never stop sweating i hate humidity i
would rather it be really hot and dry than hot and humid and the city
is more inland but it is surrouned by a lake. there are so many black
people here because of the war in libya and we teach a lot of them
they are soo funny and fun to talk and its also funny because even
though they are from africa they still dress how african americans
would dress but they are really nice and love jesus! im glad you have
finally got to go do something this summer. thats really awesome if
you feel like your doing all your self just start praying every moring
and night and i know god will start to help you. we must show him we
are being humble for him to bless us.our church building is really
small and is in like this office complex its weird but interesting and
i don't really know how many members we have because of feregosto the
holiday for august. but i should know soon and the fruit is sooooo
good here i don't know what they do its awesome. but i miss cereal
they have nothing here for cereal. it makes me sad.  oh and me and another anziani were companions for a
day for an exchange and he was in the mtc with me that was interesting
day because we both don't understand the language and we tried to do
house to house but everyone here just has apartments so thats pretty
easy. but it was for sure fun to try and talk to people when none of
you understand. haha oh one more thing they have mcdondalds here but
nothing else and the mcdonalds here is more expensive because of the
euro and the quality is not very good and you can't have refills:(
you have to pay for them.


                                    love you so much talk to you next week

                                                          anziano strong
