Through Niagra Falls

Ha so since we meet so many people from Central/South America, we hear a large amount of crazy "sneaking into the US" stories hahaha so good. We met one lady who immediately after hearing that I was from the US and Hermana Dow from Canada, started telling us her plan to fly to Canada and then try to get into New York through the Niagara Falls. We DIED laughing. Pretty sure that isn't going to go so well but ya know. She's determined. Updates to come, if we see her back here in 2 weeks, we'll know it didn't go well haha.

Also other weird realization moment this week. So here in Spain everyone gives 2 lil kisses on the cheek to greet one another and it's just the cutest lil thing. I honestly forgot that that definitely isn't a thing in America and on Sunday we had someone visiting from the States and she came to greet us and....shook our hand....the WEIRDEST thing ever. 

As far as missionary work this week has been really good. We took Nancy and Mariana to the church and gave them a tour on Friday and they both said that there's a really special feeling inside. They're perfect and progressing so well. We're so excited for them! 

Also I got to go to Vilafranca to be companions with Hermana Tenorio for a day! She's SO cute. She's from Peru and is just finishing her training. I LOVED being with her for that little bit of time and speaking Spanish 24/7. I love this language. 

Also this week is Semana Santa so there's all kinds of parades and things where they dress up in weird robes and carry around big floats of the Saints and Christ and Mary. Very interesting. I'M SO EXCITED FOR GENERAL CONFERENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 times a year there's a conference held where the prophet and the 12 apostles speak to the world. It's amazing. You should all watch it. 

Well I love you all so much!
The mission is the best!
Love,
Hermana Johnson
