January 4, 2012

Only 20 months left!!
Hey,
Puerto Rico has been great. The weather is still hot, and it doesn't rain much, it's been pretty dry lately. They don't use tortillas here, I've only had them when we buy them at home but I have had flan a few times. They make a really good dessert called tembleque, I don't know how to describe it, but maybe you can look it up. That and arroz con dulce, (a dessert made out of rice with sweet stuff) but the food is really good, we're always well fed. Man, Wyatt's just driving everyone in the ward out of town, what's he teaching them? That's too bad that I won't see Mikelson when I get home. New Year's is crazy here. In Puerto Rico they celebrate Three kings day sometime early in January so from Christmas to Three kings is just one big party, and on new year's eve they go crazy with the fireworks. They told us we had to be inside by 6 that night, either at home or at an appointment, so the Rosario family invited us over to their house. We ate dinner there and after we played Monopoly with their son that just got home from the Salt Lake City mission. That was a lot of fun, it reminded me of playing Monopoly at home on new years eve. So things have been fun, we're going to have a big mission activity for three kings sometime this week. Dad's talk sounded great, I wish I could have been there to hear it.
Everything has been going well with the investigators, Angel is coming along. He's learning a lot and understands really well, but we're just praying to know what to say that will help him feel that need to pray to know the Book of Mormon is true. We asked Alex to come over with us so he can share his experience with prayer. We hope that will be good for him. It's good to hear everything is going well. I love you
Elder Duclos
