It doesn't really matter whether I get e-mails or handwritten letters, it doesn't matter either way. It was a good experience last week and things have been going good this week too we've gotten a few referrals from other missionaries of people they talked to on the street who happen to live in our area. So things are good for us.
We also had some CRAZY people we talked to this week too. We were tracting near where we live on a street called Wainana Street and we were near the end of it we passed this one house because there wasn't a car there so we figured no one would be home so we walk past it and this guy comes running out of his house and was like "oh you missed me." So we started talking to him and he was telling us how he keeps the Sabbath on thursday cause he saw a special on tv about it and we were like oh yeah do you know about the mormons? and he told us oh yeah I respect you Elders. Then Elder Butcher asked if he had a copy of the Book of Mormon and the guy had this weird look on his face and Elder Butcher asked if he wanted it and the guys said "oh I'd better not....... I burned it with lamp oil as a sacrifice... " And we were like are you for real???? And we asked why he said it was a holy book that's why. Wierd guy. So weird. That kind of stuff happens more often than not. By the way Haole's (white people) are so rude here you figure like locals might be more mean cause this is their territory... wrong Haoles are the meanest people when we go tracting. locals just say no thanks but haoles always like chew us out for going up and down the streets all the time because "no one wants to talk to us." Gee.
Anyway yes we eat local food all the time, Lau lau kalua pig all good stuff. There is some stuff I don't eat like poke fish (raw fish) and other stuff but for the most part it is good. Things are going good though. Love you guys. Talk to you soon. By the way I'm almost at 3 months. weird.
