Finally, after waiting like what it felt forever, we got to leave Buenos Aires to attend the Mission Leader’s seminar in Iguazu Falls. We should have left a week ago but if it wasn’t that we were forced to sit in our apartment as if we were infected with the virus. WE ARE BOTH VACCINATED don’t you understand? But they don’t care. All the government cares are getting elected and winning votes. They care less about doing things the smart way. What this government is doing is ludicrous! Not only we tested negative when we boarded the plane but several times before that as well. We have taken more PCR tests than I can even count. What a waste of resources!
We found out that the system couldn’t read my number because it was not a DNI number and that is why I wasn’t getting my results. The robot could not read the information so we had to ask a human and finally my results came in. Since we didn’t have that information right before we needed to board the plane, I took another PCR quick test. Thank goodness it only took 20 minutes and off we went. There was no way Daniel could not attend this event in person. It would be like planning a party, have all the guests arrive to the event but have the host not show up to his own party. That is exactly what it feels like for Daniel.
We did everything we supposed to even when we knew it was the stupidest thing but not complying with the decree could mean fines and even jail. In the end, we got to our hotel and we could finally enjoy our time with the best people this world has ever seen. I learned so much in the seminar and saw the most beautiful water fall my eyes has seen. It was like a dream. It is great to learn from one another. All I can say is that those missionaries are so lucky, the mission Presidents and their wives are amazing humans and great example to each one of us.
Con amor,
Vero
