I’m glad you got my package. Go ahead and open it. There is some food on the outside, some little things popular here. They use a lot of drink mix. All of them you can just buy at little stores people have at their houses where they resell food. There are usually a few in every neighborhood.
I have gotten two packages so far. Thanks! The only thing I can think to have you send that you wouldn't think of is dental floss. They have 2 kinds here and they are hard to find. They cost over $3 for a small roll! The one I bought was cheaper, but it doesn't work well. It won’t slide between your teeth. It is kind of sticky. Not good. Thanks for the umbrella. It is sweet!
So Carcar is much bigger than Carmen. It has some big stores, restaurants and some good stuff. A lot more Americans too. We have an American and a French man in our ward, the American is an inactive bishop and the French man is in the bishopric. We have a ward of about 100 active members. The spirit is so much stronger here than in Carmen. I like it. Brother Fransue, the French guy has a big sweet house and worked for some space company in France. He went to a shuttle lift off once in California for work. I discovered last night that he is a genius! He has a music studio with tons of guitars that he built himself with speakers he made. He writes music all the time and plays all the parts and sings and they sound like professional recordings. It’s amazing!
We have 3 investigators committed with a baptismal date. They are all for January. Hopefully they will all pull though. They are Johnly, Kokoy and Krisnel.
I am sorry to hear about Grandma Schenk. I hope she gets better. Tell her I love her for me.
And tell Katie and Josh Merry Christmas for me! I was going to send them a card, but 3 weeks ago I forgot. I could send one now but it wouldn’t get there till the end of January.
I am excited to talk to you all face to face in 3 days! Have lots of questions for me!
Love you all!
Elder Schenk
This is a breakfast food, it's good. It tastes like tapioca.

A coin purse made by the mother of the YW president, and some pesos.
Dried, salted fish. You freshen it in water, deep fry it and dip it in vinegar and chiles.
Devin says it's delicious!
A "Where's Waldo" look a like tie Devin found bought from a street vendor. It's awesome!
