The Temple and The Elders
So, on the 16th we went to the temple in the afternoon to do baptisms and it was a really great experience as usual. I have really liked going as often as we have to do baptisms with our friends. After, we were all supposed to leave for a walk but they had asked Garrett if we, the four endowed men, could stay for a session because there were no other guys in the temple and there were plenty of women who wanted to do the 3 o’clock session. Garrett and I were ok with it and very excited in fact to do a session in Spanish. So we went. After, we met up with Kendal, Andrew, and Kyte, who had already done the walk and we just decided we’d do the walk later and wandered Madrid a bit in an area we’d never been. That is why us boys were in church clothes. As we wandered the city we found a bunch of old guys (elderly people) playing a game in a park that we could not figure out.At first we thought that it had to do with knocking poles over but it turned out that what they wanted to do was spin a disc between the poles. That made it very funny because we kept cheering when they’d know a bunch over, thinking it was good, and everyone would look at us like retards. It would be like someone cheering every time someone hit the white lines on a back board but didn’t make a basket in. See, retards. We found a couple of cool places……and ended up somewhere near the Royal Palace for a picture.We walked towards Sol and saw some nifty street performers. It was a really fun day…I always end like that. Talk about monotony. That is the opposite of what each of my days are. Just think of something new and original to describe how the day ended up.
