"A Good Week"

On account of it being Thanksgiving this past week, our bishop, 김정기, hooked us up with a Thanksgiving-esque feast last Monday. You can't find turkey very easily in Korea, so we had duck, which is a) close enough and b) way more delicious.

We spent much of the day Tuesday at a seniors' center helping out old people. They all thought it was so cool that there were Americans there, so it was lots of fun.

Our zone got super lucky and had our Temple P-day [Once each transfer P-day is moved from Monday to Thursday and one's zone goes to the Temple.] on Thanksgiving. So after going to the Temple we all met in 영등포 and had an incredible Thanksgiving dinner, courtesy of our mission president's younger brother who happens to live here in 서울. Tons of fun. Then during our meal the first snow of the winter started falling, which of course didn't stop us (all the zone's elders) from playing football. Best Thanksgiving I've had in Korea yet.

The next day we had some personal interviews with President Morrise (happens once every other transfer). Those were great.

On Sunday our ward had our Primary program. We only have two kids in Primary, but they've both got a lot of personality (8 and 9 years old), so it was a ton of fun.

The cherry on top: all of the mosquitoes in our apartment are finally dead.
