Monte Sossego week 11
Right now I am sore all over because this mornig we biked for three hours there and back to a secret beach literally on the opposite side of São Vicente. It was beautiful and for most of the ride we saw nobody. This island is pretty barren apart from Mindelo. Haha we could have swum and no one would have known. We did not though. This last week we had zone conference which was awesome but stressful to organize. We had to organize the lunch, plan the interviews with President, give a training, and other stuff. This week we had the baptism of Ruth. She was very prepared and excited, but she showed up 30 minutes late which scared my socks off. This week we also found some cool rapazes named Eder, Bill, and Hamilton. They went to church and an EnglishConnect devotional on Sunday. I think that they will be baptised this month. Bill and Hamilton are from São Tiago. So right now I may be tired, but in general things are great here on the mission. These last six months I will really try and be the best missionary I can be. I will also eat healthier. Até mais.

Elder Gale,
ReplyDeleteThat is Way Cool that you got to ride mountain bikes to the other side of the island. It looks like you are on a sand bar that extends out into the ocean with the ocean on both sides of the beach.
That reminds me of a remote beach I was able to go to in South Africa while I was on my Mission there. It was way cool with huge sand dunes just inland of the beach area.
Lots of sharks in South Africa, in addition to it being against the rules to swim. I definitely walked in the water on the beach, but the knowledge of sharks out in the water were an even greater deterrent than the knowledge of the rules, regarding how far I ventured into the tide.
But your beach and trip there are way cooler. Just Awesome!
