Bus,Sushi, Bus and Bikes!

The list which subjectifies this email today is a list of the highlights from this week.  This week was full of traveling from Mombasa to Nairobi, then being in a meeting all day, going and getting Sushi.  Then back on a bus, and this morning unknowingly my area became a biking area so that was a nice surprise.  Here are some fun stories though.
Stori ya Kwanza: "Where do you get off?" - Hot rod
This quote is used a little differently this time though.  So on our way to Nairobi I was with Elder M.  He was being transferred to an area there and I was headed to pick up Elder Z.( my new comp).  Anyways so there are two or three bus stops in Nairobi and nobody told us where to get off.  So where neither of us have made this trek before we just waited for people to get off and then we would. So we took the bus to the end of the line for lack of a better term.  Turns out we were supposed to get off about half an hour ago.  So we ended up in the middle of nairobi near midnight, with no phone.  Luckily a guy was nice and let us use his phone to call mission president, and we got to the mission home around midnight. Nairobi at midnight is kinda scary fyi.
Stori ya pili: "You have what for me?"
This one actually happened this morning.  So I got a call from some random number and they were asking where I was staying.  I was very confused so I did my best to explain to them that I am a missionary and I stay in Shanzu.  Then this lady starts going nutz looking for my last companion Elder Fuller.  Then she says she has some things she needs us to sign for and hangs up.  Well then I get a call from another number saying that I get bikes! So after about an hour long game of phone tag  and "I don't know where that is". We have brand new bikes that no one knew were coming.  I named mine Jasmine, my companions is named Grace.
Anyways that's it for today, my new companion is from Zimbabwe, he is cool. I can share a couple pictures from when elder Fuller left but that is about all I have for you. I was inside a lot this week.
Love y'all
Elder Tucker

(No pictures came through. ) At least he had power and was able to Email and I am grateful!  Some of the missionary mommas Elders have no power. Praying for everyone to get to Email next week!! POWER, POWER the internet next Monday!! Mom
