IAORANA TATOU!!! More Moana Ocean This week was crazy! First of all Soeur Fowers got super sick while we did our P-day activity of criving around the island. I thought she was crazy for always turning the AC off because I was DYING, but that night she had a 104 fever. Members came and drugged her up and two days later all was well. We did get some pretty cool photos though. (Not from here being sick but from sightseeing) Soeur Fowers in pain and very cold. She's such a trooper.

First of all no one spoke in tahitian during testimony meeting. I bore my testimony and said "Iaorana Tatou" like the true Tahitian I am and I kid you not people came up to me and were so proud of the two tahitian words I pronounced correctly. It was actually kinda funny. Something else that's also really different is driving. All I need to say is that there are way too many roundabouts and random speed bumps. And I almost hit a pedestrian, but there were no casualties this week.  American Food to the Rescue Soeur Sellers mentioned McDonald's in the last post. Here is her picture of a "mobile" McNugget! Truly thought-provoking! Inside McDonald's - Bonding with Your Food  Guess who got...
