Letter #59 (Sept 18th, 2012)

Hey all,
So this week has been busy,and we definitely didn't get the same amount
 of lessons and things this week. So last Thursday night we (ako and si
Elder Perez, the DL in Camotes) went to Liloan to stay with the ZLs
that night, before heading to Cebu that next morning for leadership
training with President Schmutz. It was great and he gave an amazing
workshop on commitment. That evening we headed back to danao... then on
sat and sun we had stake conference in Liloan again so we stayed there
again for those nights and had a good time with our zone mates taking
about things. I swear there are more members here in our stake than in
our stake back home... easily! The chapel was full and the cultural
hall and the stage and the cultural hall here in long and wide. Then
Monday we had a csp in Carmen in the sisters area, and got to have one
lesson in the evening and then I made tuna grey sauce for dinner...
just to let you know, there are no such things as scales here so I had
to guesstimate the ingredients and guess what... it turned out great!
cause I'm just awesome! Then yesterday we got kugihan and got 7 lessons
and got punted in the evening... we could have had a good 10 lessons
or so if that hadn't happened. But we are still having lots of fun here
in the area.
Elder Daffon in from China... town Davao city...he has some Asian
blood that comes through pretty strong. Then Elder Rasing is from
Manila somewhere I forgot. 
I've tried the recipes... just check out the awesome results in the photos!
Haven't really got photos of the area cause we've been busy working in
it!... jujuju... but I'll try and get some for you... its a pretty city
in a bukid kind of way if you get what I mean. and we get round on
these little tricycle things that are push bikes attached to a cab
body thing... I'll get a picture. and of course we still use
habal-habal as well occasionally.
The fiesta made it crazy here in Danao on the weekend and it was fun
trying to get back to our apartment that Sunday after stake conference.
It was like trying to weave through a maze of people and avoid the
main parade to find where we could cross the road to get to the side
with our apartment. Fun!...
So yeah... don't really know what else to write, other than...
HAPPY B'DAY MUM!
...hahaha... you thought I almost forgot again...
Well hope you enjoyed it, and have fun this week as well
miss you all,
love you tons,
Love Elder Taylor Addison Cox
