Today I am writing to you guys from a place called Carlsbad. It is
right on the ocean! Its pretty sweet. I got transfered to the carlsbad
1st ward which has the carlsbad stake center in it which is where all of
the transfers happen. So it was a nice 5 min drive to our apartment
from the stake center. The mission home is in my area, so that means
that Pres. Cook lives in my area. Pretty cool!
My new companion is elder
Soderberg. He came out with me on the mission, but was in a different
mtc district. So I kinda knew him before. I felt pretty stupid when we
were talking with our ward mission leader and didn't realize that me and
elder Soderberg came out at the same time. They both just laughed, so
its all good. He is from the Salt lake area. He is the oldest of 5. He
is really cool. Our personalities match pretty good, so we are going to
get along just fine. We will probably be stuck together for at least two
transfers, so it will be good.
Up to this point, I've found carlsbad to be a pretty interesting
place. It is a lot different than the past 2 areas that i have served.
There are not quite as many families here as temecula was. It's a little
rougher, but not bad. The people are not quite as friendly here, and
they are way wierder than in temecula. I will totally have some funny
stories when i get back. This really is not that rich of an area, but it
costs a bunch to live out here. Its almost like a rich/rundown area. So
the people area a little bit more pridefull. It will be really good
though! The ward is Amazing! My companion is cool, and we are going to
do way good here! And most importantly, the weather is really, really
good.
Other than that... Not too much else that I can think of has
happened. I've just met a lot of people and getting to know the area.
I plan on sending pictures next week.... Sorry! I've been severally slacking in that area.
