bethel - doing it for Jehovah, all day long

so i'm back. i went to mexico city and lived to tell about it. though to be perfectly honest, i didn't go into the city too much. mostly drove around there, and stayed outside the city, in bethel, and a nearby city called texcoco.

bethel is amazing. i love it. i want to live there. me and brittany were threatening to barricade ourselves in our room and never come out. except for meals. we saw so much. because we were staying there we were considered temporary bethelites, so we got lots of extra tours. the normal tour lasts about five hours. ours was spread out over three days, and added up to at least ten.

we met wonderful people, that i genuinely hope i get to see again. soon would be nice. the generosity and hospitality of the brothers and sisters we met was humbling. they did everything they could to make us happy, and wouldn't accept anything in return. i hope they understood how grateful we were despite the language barrier.

other than bethel, we spent a day at the pyramids and a day at six flags. it was too much fun. i didn't want to leave. but we did, and now i am here in mazatlan. which is a pretty great place to have to come back to.

Haha. Kelly would throw a camera in salt water! I've seen and felt the after effects of taking a picture of kelly. warnin ya, if you wanna keep your camera (and im sure you know this as it is)DONT take a picture of the munnsmum swimming. But im sure it would be an interesting tale to tell when you get back..
Ps... Mexico has taken Erin & now Pat and kelly too? You depriving our congregation of munns here!
