#2 Life Without The Internet (By Grandma)



1st picture on their new assignment.


From GRANDMA:

Just got connected but will probably be short lived. 

We were met at the airport by MP and wife and by a senior couple.  Taken by van to an apt up a trail of steps and up stairs to an apt that had recently been vacated by a couple.  As you know our suitcases weigh a ton.  Everyone helped. 

Went to dinner with MP then to bed.  

Next day we toured with SV couple.  We rode metros, trains , and a boat for 10 hours and it was at least 200 degrees.  We saw all the mosques and sites.  We did mcD for dinner , but still no internet 

Today we are touring again and doing dinner with a couple from A--- , here, MP and us. Zone conf is tomorrow and then we lug suitcases to the airport and fly south, stay in a hotel and hope to get in an apartment on Monday.  That is a brief summary.  Miss you all lots!!!!

MOM

PS.  And in the future I'll call everyone sent from the MTC as "volunteers". We are SV (Senior Volunteers) and people like Tanner will be YV (Young Volunteers).  We're taking the metro tonight to meet all the SV's and the MP at the Marriott for dinner.  Tomorrow is a Zone Conference and then we fly south. Who knows when we'll have Internet?  BTW. There are only 3 SV couples in the country. One of them owns Cafe Rio!

Home for 3 nights until they can get into their apartment.

**Daughter's Note:  Because of the sensitive issues of where my parents are, there will be abbreviations and acronyms to places they are and people they are with.  I'll try to keep the terms up so you understand.  SV are senior volunteers.  YV are young volunteers.
