So this last week we tracted all day and fin ally met a new guy named simon, He is a beekeeper. He wants to learn more about us which is good. He is of the Ratana Faith which is a maori religion. His Honey that he sells is like world famous and sells for 900 a kilo though. We later went to Tokoroa and had a zone meeting where we baked and i am not even exaggerating to the least, 4000 snickerdoodles. For real our Zone leaders are crazy. You see, your average person would be like ah whatever Cuz, you had blenders and mixers and stuff. Well here in New Zealand, they don't believe in dishwashers, air conditioning, and blenders. So we mixed it all by hand and ended up startinging at 12 in the afternoon, and finishing at 10:30 last night. It was insane! I am trying to get all the pics for it but it is slow. I got a package and I almost cried I was so happy. I can't open until christmas though. My Trainers Mom Made me a stocking though and that was nice. I love it here. I went with Elder Olcott last monday and went on some hikes through that forest in Lord of the Rings. You wouldn't believe how perfect the forest was for a movie set. It was cool as. All of the trees here grow in straight lines and that was weird but When I come Back I am so going to hammock in them. They are literally the perfect hammock trees. One of the elders in Tupo are teaching us how to fire dance too. He is a big Samoan. We are really trying to become consecrated missionaries right now. It is alot more difficult than you think. We are happier though when we do it. We also are eating at these little Fish and chip shop here in Turangi that are awesome! They are known to be the best in the mission or so I have heard. I tried to eat a sea urchin and it was nasty as. Just imagine a Wet booger sliding down your throat. I still ate it though. We did a big service Yesterday and we cleaned out a full garden. I really got homesick and thought of my mom. Ha stupid Gardening. I miss you all. The Work is good and more importantly,
GOD IS GOOD!
Happy Holidays And Kia Kaha!
love Elder Allart
