Hmmm, maybe I should get a camera-Me

My companion now was a professional photographer when he was home so he is trying to convince me to get a camera.  Which  wilI consider because it is actually very interesting.  There is a lot of cool pics I could get at home when working as a guide for THAT. Enough of that though, onto STORIES!

Story Number 1:  Transfers

We start at Amalinda Chapel in East London, here we have five missionaries starting their quest as the pioneers of a new exchange route to Port Elizabeth.  Instead of flying, they will be driving.  Now let me tell ya, the Eastern Cape has a lot of cool hills.  Some people might call them mountains but they are hills.  It was a very beautiful drive to see the country side and go to this little town in the middle called Grahamstown.  Very cool little town with a lot of trees, in between two mountains.  Then the rest of the drive was kind of boring but we saw some huge sand dunes that you can sand board at.  Hoping to P-day there one week.  An all around good road trip to Port Elizabeth.

Story Number 2:  Mission calls

This week in our ward two elders got their mission calls.  Brought back memories of Teron and Myself opening our mission calls.  It was truly a fun experience because it was done right after sacrament meeting.  One of the guys is going to Johannesburg and the other is going to Madagascar.  They are leaving on the twenty sixth of April to the SA MTC.  Both are very jazzed about their missions.

My new companion is on his last transfer before he goes home on April 26 th as well! His family has moved from New Zealand to about 2 miles from where I live. He is great. Weird we meet in South Africia. 

Sorry this letter is a bit quick.  I am on a tight schedule today.

Love you all,

Elder Tucker
