Rain! Sent February 12th, 2018

There has been a McKade sighting somewhere in the jungles of French Guiana! Hey everyone! Normally I think of things to say in this during the week, and then write it in my planner so by the time I get here I already know what to write about. But I didn't do that this week, and I can't really remember anything that we did, haha. So I'll just keep typing and hopefully something will come to me. Oh, one thing is that it rained a ton this week. It has rained almost constantly since thursday. It was mostly just drizzling, but there were a  few times that it poured rain. So that was pretty cool. Oh, and we also played soccer this week! We had it as a sports night at the church, and we had some members and investigators come, so it was a success! The only problem was that some of them were really good, so I played really hard to try to not get destroyed, and I ended up getting super bad blisters on my feet. I could hardly walk the next two days. It was pretty pai...

Exchanges! Sent February 5, 2018

Hello! Alrighty, I don't want to spend too long on this email today, so I'm gonna skip this useless first paragraph and just get started right away. You're welcome. So, we went on exchanges this week, and that was interesting. I went with Elder West, and he is in a biking area. The only problem is they don't have bikes. They have fossils. I don't know how old those things are, but they have more problems than, um, something with a lot of problems. Anyway, The brakes don't really work on the one I was riding. You need to pull the left hand brake, and then grab the wire under the metal bar under your seat and pull on that too. And then it still stops pretty slowly. And the chain fell off a few times. And the seat isn't fully attached, so it spins around and if I get off and get on again sometimes the seat is sideways. So yeah, that day was awesome! It was actually super fun once I got the hang of riding it, haha.  We also had a miracle happen ...
