So - today is our last Saturday in Saratov. We left our apartment a little before noon and caught a trolley bus to Lenin Square. Then we walked across Lenin Square and bought a hot dog wrapped in dough and cooked from a lady at a table. It was very good...Ansel bought one when he was here and loved it so I decided to have one for him today. Then we caught bus 284b to Engels for the baptism of 19-year-old Dasha
She is awesome. After the baptism we helped with the food and then got a taxi with Elder ad Sister Yorgerson to Solnichney...about a 45-minute taxi ride. The famous Saratov Bridge over the Volga is closed until November to everything except buses so we went the long way. Solnichney had an activity about the restoration of the gospel that was awesome. We helped with the food - Sherry cooked fry bread for an hour or so. Got another taxi with the Yorgersons and dropped us off at our apartment on the way to their apartment in Zavodskoy. Home now, having a sandwich because we forgot to eat. Tomorrow is our last Sunday in our branch and we both got asked tonight by our good branch president to give a good-bye talk.

We do not want to give a good bye talk. We just want to slip out the back door.
This is gonna be hard.
