But General Conference was good. We had to go to Leon to see it. On Saturday there were still trying to figure out the sound and video, so it was on and off. And the power went out too. But still learned some good things.
On Sunday we went with the Branch Momotombo in a bus to Leon. They picked up our small group of 10 people and we headed off. We stayed there till 4pm. We had gallo pinto for lunch that the Hna. MIlagros brought. It was a good time. It was a good time to just chill and listen to the leaders of the church. And while there, Elder Ramos had some member that were in his last area that went to Honduras where he lives to go to the temple and his family sent him a package. So we got some treats this week.
On Sunday night we ate a dish called nacatamal. (see pic). We have it every Sunday night because a member sells them and she makes them really tasty. Its like soft cord dough (I'm not sure how to explain it) with meat and veggies inside. It is cooked inside of a banana leaf. It is a dish only sold in Nicaragua. Kind of rare to find it in other countries.
A funny story from this week: Elder Ramos and I were trying all week to have a lesson with this family that says that they want to visit with us. But every time we went for the lesson, they were busy or weren't home. On Friday we passed at 7:30pm when they told us to. But again, they weren't home. But we aren't sure because their door was open just a crack. They had asked for a Book Of Mormon, and we had brought it for them. But when nobody came to the door, we just left the book on top of the door for them to find. I am still not sure what happened to the Book of Mormon. But when we find them we will ask what happened to it. (I think it fell on their heads) but who knows?
Till next week,
Elder Taylor
