Day 8...Well, Im not sure we can still call ourselves missionaries..

Today was soo much fun and I dont have pictures of most of it. Sorry! We woke up and went to church with Luci, Julio and the girls. Church in nice, but we have no idea what he is saying, so its not a blast, but its nice. Here are some pics of church



After church we came home and had taco soup. Everyone liked it. The plan on Sunday is kind of to just sit around and rest, but Mark, John and I didnt really want to rest so we asked Julio to drop us off at the Hotel Longarone so that we could go swimming. He took us to the hotel and when we were asking them how much it cost to swim there we also asked the price of going to the water park next door. It was only $6.25 per person to have the entire water park to ourselves!!! ok not really to ourselves, there were about 20 other people, but that was it. It was soooo much fun. There were 7 water slides and 4 of them were wet n wild top water slides (huge!), there was a lazy river, and a wave pool. We were there for about 4 hours until Julio came and picked us up to go the village and play soccer with all of the kids. Once we got to the village it turned out that only boys were playing soccer (kind of sexist if you ask me) so I played with all of the little kids. I taught some of them how to shoot a basketball, and Mark and John played soccer with all of the guys. We got home and Mark and John watched Transformers with Luci and Julio and I went upstairs and read a book (its a good one that I will give you when you get here Erin). That was all for day 8. It was mostly playing! Sorry I dont have pictures. The view of the mountains from the top of the water slides was amazing. We were all kicking ourselves for not taking a camera. Im thinking about paying to get back in just so I can take pictures of this place. So much fun. Today we are going to the food kitchen to feed some of the little ones and then we are going to walk the village and visit some of the families. I'll try to post later tonight.
