France, Lyon Mission

Hello everyone. So this past week we went on exchange to Corsica.. turned into quiet the adventure. Normally we fly down there which takes about one hour, though the office forgot to buy our tickets so the flights were all sold out. So we ended up having to take the boat to the island. Since Ive never done a cruise I dont know what its like, but I imagine the farrie is a really bad version of what it must be like. We had this cute little cabin with beds connected to the wall for our 8 hour voyage. The whole thing was run by italiens who didnt speak french or english very well so it was all a bit odd. Once in Corsica we had some fantastic exchanges. I got to go on exchange with my old MTC companion E. Call. I have nothing but love for that man.
Ill send pictures one of these weeks from the exchanges.
The baptismal date for Isabelle got pushed back to the 9th of march due to opposition of her family, but she is staying really strong and is set on having her self baptised on that day. This week we're working on the transfer changes, which is always really fun. It is a dashing experience, and a blast just getting to be around the Roney's. This past week we went with the office staff to the Roney's house and played some good ol fashion bball. President Roney is money. He was making it rain from outside and had quiet the swag on the court.
Well, I love you! I hope you have a great week. Thank you so much for sending the photos. Everyone looks so great. My favorite is the George Cloony 'salt n pepper' look dad has got going these days. So much class.
