Ten Glorious Days!

We left Buenos Aires on October 2^ndto be ready to attend General Conference on October 5-6 and for meetings the following week. It was a way for us to get our butteries charged and as always to see dear friends and family. 

In Spanish, there is a phrase: “De músico poeta y loco todos tenemos un poco” Which means that we are not all musicians or poets but we can all attempt to capture the beauty around us like song writers and poets do. Take a little time at the start of a new week to think back over the past week with the aid of your journal or calendar. What happened? What did you do and feel? What things did you noticed? Write a few lines of poetic review that gives that week a unique identity. You will notice that more happened than you realized and there were a lot of fun and nice good moments that were not as insignificant as you thought. 

I am going to attempt writing about my daily happening from October 2 to October 12, 2019.

 In a nut-shell this is what we did:
