9:00-9:30 plan

This week was not the healthiest for missionaries, yesterday a few missionaries were sick. I have had a cold but it's not bad. We are getting a new group of Latinos tomorrow. The Panama Elder gave me one of his Panama ties, its very colorful and the coolest tie I have ever seen.

For our P Day today we went to Teotihuacan, it's was very cool. We had a tour guide that was LDS and told us all the symbolism and how it relates to our temples. We walked up the Temple of the Sun and it was amazing. I have pictures and will try and send them. We saw some other missionaries there and they translated what the guide was saying so we could understand. There is some very interesting statues and artifacts there and I learned a lot. While we were there everybody was trying to sell us stuff. We had our P day on Tuesday because we wanted to go to Teotihuacan and we couldn't go when the other Latino missionaries were here.

Dad send me your talk I would like to read it.
Sorry my letters are so short, I never know what to say.

Thank you so much for your letters,
Love Elder Weston
