After seeing the church, we had lunch and headed to find the apartment Spence lived in here. We walked on a lot of dirt roads, and it was hotter than I anticipated when we got everyone dressed, but we eventually found the apartment. Spence was thrilled when Graciela Alonzo, the lady that lived in front of them, was home and she was beyond excited to see him and catch up. They talked about how everyone was doing in the ward and had a good chat. Spence will have to fill in more on that later due to the fact that I can't understand very much when he's talking to people here.
It was so much fun to see people Spence knew when he served here and watch them both so happy to see each other.

Taking a break from walking...
Graciela gave Davis and Blair some toys to play with while she talked to Spence. It was so nice. The kids get pretty tired of sitting and not touching anything while Spence talks in a language they don't understand.
This is the apartment Spence lived in while he was here.
Another break

That looks like a really nice church building. How fun that you all could go visit and walk the same places and see some of the people that Spence knew then. Sounds like the kids are being little troopers!
It's a good thing you are feeding those kids pastries every morning for breakfast--with all that walking they might come home shadows of their former selves. I should do a little mre walking myself!
Love you...
