¡Viva España!: Car, Paella, Owl

Hola a todos. These past two weeks here have flown by. In our area we now have a car because they have been closing areas in our mission due to the fact missionaries are finishing their missions and have gone home, and we aren't receiving any new missionaries unless they are from Spain because the country is not currently allowing Americans to come here. I am a little nervous about driving since I haven't driven a car in over a year, so I have let my companion do most of the driving. He is also really good at parallel parking.

We have been finding a lot of people to teach through English classes here. This week as we were teaching our friend Mercedes her husband decided to join us for the lesson. Which made us happy. We are fortunate here in Alicante and have not had to be fully quarantined again like some parts of our mission due to a recent spike in Corona cases here in Spain. Here we can teach our amigos in the capilla or in a park. Our amigos are from all different countries, Mexico, Ecuador, Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru, Argentina
.

Also we can now eat at peoples homes if they have a balcony or outdoor space. We were grateful this week to be able to eat at the homes of three different families and one of those being a family that we are teaching. This week we visited a family who lives on a small farm and they have a pet owl which I got to pet and they made us a traditional Spanish dish of Paella. It tasted so good. If you can have the missionaries over to eat where you live please do so, it will make their day. We went on a hike today for pday. I will attach some pictures from it.

Tenga una buena semana!
