Hey Familia!
I made it alive to Peru even though the flight was EXTREMELY LONG. The first one
was really easy so i just slept the first part and then read my BOM the rest of
the time. It was a really boring flight. Then we were in Atlanta for 2 hours and
just waited until we got on our plane for Miami. I got to know some of the
Elders better that were heading to Peru. But there are only 3 others that are
headed to my mission, and we all are terrible at Spanish. Go figure.
My flight to Miami was actually pretty enjoyable. I sat next to a Mr. Diaz and
we just talked about stuff the whole ride. That was the quickest 2 hour flight i
have ever had. We talked about food, countries, intersests, and just everything
else really. He is a airline pilot that flies freight all around the world and
he had some great stories to tell. He flies all around the world and gets to
experience all the different types of cultures. I am kinda jealous of him.
After that flight we had the longest 5 hour wait ever! Our flight was delayed for about 20 mins, so we left miami at 2 a.m. To help pass the time we
all just talked and got to know one another better, and talking to you guys was
the highlight of the night!
The flight wasn`t too bad, but i wished that i was in First Class cause they got
the bed seats. And i got stuck with a seat in the middle of the plane, no me
gusta. But i did talk to this Peruvian man for most of the flight. He asked me
a couple questions about doctrine but then wouldn`t listen to my responses. It
was super frustrating, so eventually i just went to sleep. It was really
frustrating that he thought he knew everything but then would say that we need
to learn stuff from everyone. He was super hypocritical about most of the
stuff. But its bound to happen, and im sure that i will find more people just
like him out in the field. It was super tempting to watch movies or play games
when i was on the flight. The chair was so uncomfortable that sleeping was out
of the option. But eventually i got my pilferated sleep. We landed in Peru and went through all the immigrations stuff and got
our bags and what not. We then hopped on the bus and came here, to the MTC.
Its a brand new building and really neat and clean. And the whole place is
super small, so it will be hard to get lost.
Well im running off 5 hours of sleep and no food, so im pretty much going crazy.
Ill be sure to write a much better letter next week, when im not loosing my mind
haha.

Love,
Spenser
