Samara Update

Just a short note to let you know what we're doing.  Our computer is running out of power and our adapted doesn't work - the power here is 222 volts.  We're trying to figure out how to get it charged.  The AP's are going to take us to a computer store.  We walked about 2 miles to the bank to exchange leftover US currency and then to the store to buy a few things.  

Plenty of shopping available and we brought way too much stuff!   I sorta figured we would.  Met a wonderful lady at the store bakery who took us into the back room and got us some fresh bread.  Very sweet lady with gold teeth.  Lots of people with gold dental work which is cool.  Got home, ate a little salami I bought and some of that great bread and Mom made chicken and pasta.  Tonight is "cultural night" - once a month all the missionaries are encouraged to attend a cultural event.  Our friends Tracy and Jeff will be happy to know we are going to the Samara symphony.

We think our computer may accept both 110v and 220v - Elder Connell, the office Elder, says his iPad does and we think ours may as well.   Until we get charged up - we love you.  Russia is awesome!
