Last night I had my last interview with Presidente Parker and it was a spiritual experience. BE SURE to ask me about that. It was great! I don't want to type it all out. In short, President gave me a blessing and when the interview was over and he called Hermana Parker in to be there (he didn't do that with the other missionaries) and then at the end he said "I give you permission to hug Sister Parker" and I was bawling. I love those two so much and hope very much that I can come back to visit them!
To explain the pictures...... We had a medical conference and I got to meet the area doctor and his wife and I told her I was going home soon. I didn't think much of it, but when I left Tarapoto on Thursday I flew with them and spent some time with them in the office. Push comes to shove she sent us to buy a machete for HER and then when we came back she wanted 3 more. We brought 3 more back from the store, and then she said "this one is for you, have a nice trip home!" She and Hermana Parker convinced me that I could take it in my checked luggage. So we wrapped it up and it is just waiting to come home.
I am excited to come home, but it will be very strange. I am NOT looking forward to flying for more than 10 hours, but it will definitely be worth it!
We should be leaving the office here within an hour or so just to go goof off for our last couple hours in Iquitos without breaking mission rules. We might go eat some worms, we're not really sure!! ahhhh hahahahahah
I think that is all for now! We shall see each other very soon!!!
