No need to fret, I've made it safely. Holy dang...that was a long day in the air. I met up with Elder Diperi in Phoenix and after we boarded our plane...it broke, and it was stinkin hot. After about 40 minutes, they finally fixed it and we were off. We landed in Atlantla abour 3 hours later and met up with a gazillion other Manchester missionaries (more like 17). They were all pretty much from Utah, and it was easy to tell. We then all boarded the fancy big plane, and we departed to England. I sat next to a young English guy and his lady friend on the plane and we quickly became friends. His name is Rob and I already got his contact information for a possible future hook up. Eight hours later, and basically no sleep, we arrived in England. Me and Elder Diperi kinda led the group through the airport, and we met up with the people who would take us to the MTC. It was a cool bus ride, and I got to see for the first time the green, english landscape, sheep and old buildings. It was beautiful, and the air is frigid. Oh ya, the opposite traffic is crazy. British people don't know how to drive.
The MTC is small and cozy, and we were warmly greeted by the mission president and his wife. Today we get to chillax a bit after we fill out some papers and get interviews. Good...because I am deathly tired. And this week, a film crew is going to follow us and make a documentary for the BBC. Hopefully it will be like The Office. Well, Im almost out of time...but my P days are wednesdays, so ill mail you again then. Have fun in the Cali sun, I love you all.
