Tuesday October 26

 Those are Christmas trees. This morning it was really dark. Beautiful day but the sun doesn’t come up til 8:00 that will change back to 7:00 this weekend when the time changes. It gets dark at 7:00 so that will change to 6:00. The days are getting shorter but we are close to the same latitude as home. I walked and then we left for a walk. There was a little old lady down on the sidewalk but there were plenty of people helping so we went on.

We were on a short walk today as we have language class then district meeting. I have taken so many pictures of things it is hard to remember to take more so today is really short on them. After the meetings we went to a store to look at white shirts for the young guy just baptized and now a deacon. When we walked in there was a good sized Christmas display, thus the trees at the start of the blog. There were ornaments and all kinds of stuff.

We went home and I cooked some of that potatoes hamburger noodles and tomato soup stuff. I meant to only make enough for one meal but made enough for several. We headed out and left the elders at the other chapel where they were picked up for a teaching appointment we went with a member to visit some less active members. It was fun. Driving around new places and in the dark is a challenge but I remind myself I was born to drive in Portugal. We arrived home late took care of things and went to bed. The weather is supposed to be not so good tomorrow. We love you all.
