Another week has flown past and we feel like we are in a fast forward mode. One thing that is a little concerning is that our flat is really starting to feel like home. It is amazing how comfortable 670 sq. ft. can feel. We have been able to get all around London on the tube system, we feel comfortable going anywhere and we also really enjoy the bus in non-peak traffic. We sit on the upper level of the two decker buses and use it as a sightseeing opportunity. We are getting our excersise we average over 8000 steps a day on the fitbit and yesterday we walked 13500, that is a little over 6 miles. We really enjoy the mission and working together. We finally feel like we are up the learning curve a ways and able to function effectively. We are required to write a lot of reports, document all of our meetings and what we do, and we have to cc about 8 different people. We were invited to go to a musical on Wed. night, An American in Paris, the old George Gershwin, play but it was very enjoyable. Two musicals in one month, not bad. We had a Zone Conference with our mission on Friday, Pres. Mark Stevens and his wife Sister Jean Stevens are remarkable leaders. We had our Area Authority 70, Andy Phillips, do the training, he is a dynamic young man. The theme of the conference was love and there was plenty of it there. Joyce and I really enjoy studying together, we are studying the Book of Mormon and Preach My Gospel alternatively. Both good reads, I would recommend it for everyone. We miss home, family and friends but we love what we are doing and we feel blessed to be able to do it and enjoy the blessings. Love to all, Joyce and Stan
