Breakfast of Mopani works and noodles

Things are all good my side. We had three confirmations this week and they went great! We had a soccer tournament this weekend with the Stake... We lost the first round... I ate mopani worms and fried noodles for breakfast. It was good. I am doing great. We are doing good work here in Broadhurst. The people are great. The only thing is that everyone only speaks Tswana. Even the billboards are in Tswana sometimes. But my companion is from Francis Town, Botswana so it's all good.

It has been a good week, the area is poppin'. We did a finding activity this week and it went GREAT. We pitched in and printed a 4 foot by 2 and 1/2 foot Book of Mormon and set up a table in the park where a lot of students and people pass. It was awesome!! Just to answer a few questions about my transfer to Botswana. I have driven from Mafikeng to Pretoria a lot and from Mafikeng and Gaborone twice for Zone Conference. I was able to remember the way. We just threw my bags in the back of the bakkie (pickup truck) and went. We stopped in Mafikeng for food and to drop off restoration pamphlets. We then shoved the rest of the pamphlets in our bags. We checked out of South Africa then drove three minutes then checked into Bots. Business as usual.

The week has been great. Stayin' busy. SO, to answer your question, "Blocks" and "Extensions" are like areas of housing varying in size. Some of it is like suburbs and others like villages. Villages are a lot more civilized than they sound. We were in Moleps (Molepolole) last week Monday on a hike. It is similar to Gabs (Gabarone). It is pronounced. Mo-ley-poe-low-lay but you say it fast.(I should start a tutoring group haha.) Things are good my side. I can really only attribute the success to the Lord.
I probably wont Skype on Mother's Day but call. Just over the phone ya know.
Love,
Your Son
Hey this is your cousin Shawn Romack. I am so glad to see this, I can't believe that the two years has passed by this quick. Just wanted to say our family moved the Chattanooga, TN area, after my wife lost her father. Hope we can keep in touch.
