As for argentina there is a lot that goes on every day. okay the plane ride was about 10 hours and that sucked. Argentina is pretty freakin ghetto. Dogs are everywhere. The first day i saw like 100 or so but after a while you just stop caring because there are so many. I pretty much love alfaores and what not. My comp is a native from santa cruz argentina. He speaks little english so we speak spanish all day every day. Its pretty cold down here. In the morning it sucks taking a shower because the room isnt heated and the hot water only lasts for about 5 minutes but its all good because i have a routine donw. I get all wet. Soap up and then rinse. THe only bad part is soaping up because its pretty freezing. Our pesion is pretty dirty. Spiders-spiderwebs ever wehre. No big deal though. Everything looks like its from the eighties. milk comes in bags so that makes things difficult sometimes. THings from america are way expensive. Did i mention dogs. The tolet is a toeltet no boday but mabey ill get one another transfer. however the toelet is pretty gross. WE have bikes so i love to cruise around and pop a weely once in a while. As for things i am glad i brought. WEre my mud boots!!!!!!!!!!! So needed and my fatty sleeping bag. Oh and those water juice mixtures! one of those a day makes it awesome. As for our members they are really good to us. They feed us mostly good. I had cow stomach the other day that was a little rougha to handle but i did. It doesnt taste bad its just incredible hard to eat. Havnt gotten robbed yet. probably because i am huge here. THe spanish is hard at fist but over time you become immune to it and things get a lot better. I am in a city called city bell maybe kyle knows where thats at. Its really good. it doesnt have fields or farm land so it makes things better. People drive pretty crazy here. for the first couple of days i thought i was going to get hit on my bike and fly into these gross ditches with trash and all sorts of stuff but that slowly faded. I had a person try reaching into my pocket on friday but i slapped it away and kept walking so it wasnt to big of a deal. This week has been pretty hectic and i cant really remember all of it but i feel that this will suffice. Ï hope all is well and remember i love you
love elder mclaws

YAH! He sounds like he's adjusting pretty well. A bunch of cultural shock I bet, but he sounds like he's taking it all in stride. Thanks for posting this so I know what's up a little more...motivates me to write and not be a slacker :)
