Dear Family,
...And thus the end is near. I am proud to announce the coming of the end of transfers. in 2 days........... I started this email and then had to run to catch a taxi and go to the airport at 8 at night to get a missionary that had supposedly arrived from Bolivia without advising us. we get there and look in the 3 international terminals then send a few calls over the intercom, and Pres. Walker calls and says it was an error of the west mission and the church system. that the elder that had arrived was from El Salvador. Our Elder from Bolivia is still in Bolivia. Great..... that was the fourth trip to the airport today.
     The first trip involved sending a missionary home then waiting for a bunch of 16 missionaries. Which actually arrived as 32 16 for us and 16 for the west mission. I was missionary traffic control. good thing is i had more or less memorized the faces and names of the missionaries that were coming to our mission so i could relatively tell who ourmissionaries were. the other mission had it easy as they just smiled and waved. We took 2 small short airline buses to the offices got them all settled in and took off to the airport for the second trip. I´ll be right back i have to go to the bus station to buy another bus ticket........so i will continue this email when i get back.... like at 11:00PM... More of less. I probably wont finish this untill tomorrow. I lied i am back 11:05 i decided to finish now or i never will. second trip was only 3 the third was only 2 missionaries so it was alot easier and quicker. 
     This week went flying by. We were planning transfers and attempting to work all at the same time. then we were up last night untill midnight planing transfer plans looking up bus times and checking to make sure everyone travelingt never got stuck alone etc. it was exciting. i literally had no P-day today. luckily i have my clothes in the dryer :) anyway i am out talk to you all next week.
