Regresando a Los Ríos

Hola!

Last night we got a call that we were kind of expecting, I got transferred today.  After spending five and a half months in Duran in the beautiful Arbolito, I boarded a bus (I still hate buses) and got sent back to La Provincia de Los Ríos.  I'm in the City of Babahoyo, I've only been here a few hours so I cant really say too much about how it is here.  From what I've learned as an outsider is that Babahoyo is that capital of Los Ríos and that when the rain comes it gets pounded.  We will see about the rumor of the rain when El Niño gets here.  It looks like I'll be here for Christmas, so I'm going to start making friends as fast as possible.

My new companion is Elder Rojas.  Again, I've only been here for a few hours so I cant say really say too much about him either.  However, we did talk an the bus ride:
Hes from La Paz Bolivia, he has three months in the mission meaning that he just got done with his training, I'm his second companion and his first experience with Transfers.  He break dances from what I've heard.  We are going to have a lot of getting to know you time as we will be together constantly for the next couple months.

I have a habit of staying long periods of time in my sectors: I was in Buena Fe for about 7 months, Guayaquil for about 6 months, and Duran for five and a half months. Looking at the numbers and seeing that I only lack 5 months in the mission, Babahoyo very well be my deathbed.  However, lots can happen in 5 months.  We will see what happens. :)

As far as health goes, all is well.  Apart from the fact I have a nagging phlegm in my chest that makes me cough.  That's just a result of the seasons changing.  -or at least that's what they tell me.  The season changes aren't that extreme in Ecuador, its always hot and  wherever and whenever.  The difference is that it gets a little cloudier and more humid in late October/early November.  In January-March it rains a crap load and continues being devilishly hot.  I guess I could say I'm used to it, but Ill be missing the cold for another while more.  ♪♫ I'm dreaming of a White Christmas... ♫♪

All is well here. from what Elder Rojas tells me we have lots of good families and tons of work to do. Cant wait. :) I'll write you all next week and let you all know a little more about the new sector.

Tell me all about Thanksgiving!

I love you all. :)
