This week went really slow. We started off the week with a leadership conference in Salta.
Monday was crazy! My comp and I got to the bus terminal in time, we had our tickets ready and everything. As we were standing there waiting for the bus to arrive, about a half hour from when the bus was supposed to arrive, the sister leaders called us to tell us that the bus that was supposed to pass by to take them the bus terminal still hadn't arrived. The problem was that they were about 40 minutes away by taxi. I told them to find a taxi asap and to beg the driver to drive fast! Then another problem occurred... they didn't have money to pay for a taxi! I told them I would be waiting for them at the drop off so that's what they did. They found a taxi and came. The bus we were supposed to take arrived before the sisters got there and we would have just got on it but we couldn't because we had to pay for their taxi. We ran to the taxi drop off hoping that they would arrive in time somehow. They got to the terminal at about 7:37 and the bus was scheduled to leave at 7:30. We ran through the terminal like a bunch of crazies but sadly the bus had already departed! We ended up waiting in the terminal until 11 at night which was when we miraculously found open seats. After a lot of stressful arguing with bus companies we finally started the trip. We got to Salta at 4 in the morning. The next day we were wasted! I fell asleep in during the training that President's wife gave. Elder Ellertson tried to help me stay awake but I had weighted eye lids! The conference was good, I learned a lot of good stuff. It was cool to find out that our zone had the most baptisms in the whole mission! After the trip we were both super tired and we still are recovering I think.
It has been raining almost all week! I love the rain because it cools down a lot but I hate it because I am getting soaked all day long! I have this really cool Nike wind breaker water shield jacket. It used to be really water proof but it has officially lost its magical powers :( I cant believe Christmas is in two weeks! Me and my comp are in charge of hiring the caterer for the Christmas conference this Wednesday. It should be fun. The three zones here in Tucuman are getting together so it's going to be pretty big. Christmas is going to be really weird. We are so busy we can't even think about that kind of holly jolly!
I miss you all a lot! I hope you are having a happy holiday and that you are on Santa's nice list! Espero que la Navidad les pase linda! Les amo un montón!
Su querido,
Elder McKee
