Pizza, Ice Cream and Lava

This week we had zone conference and so we had Chyulu Elders for a few days which is always super fun! I know you are here for some crazy stories from Kenya so I'll do my best.

Story number one: The floor is lava!

So Elder Fuller and I were reunited for a few days since he was transferred to Chyulu.  While he was here he stayed at his old stomping ground of Bamburi.  One of the nights, we started a pretty legit game of the floor is lava.  I survived and Elder Fuller Survived but our companions didn't end up making it.  Randomly both of us stared at the ground and jumped on the couches and screamed the floor is lava, then proceeded to climb from the bottom floor upstairs to the bathroom in the guest bedroom to activate the "drainage switch" It was very intense and required some very precarious situations over boiling Lava.

Story number two: Pizza, a blessing to the world
So in Kenya pretty much the only place we can get pizza is this place called pizza inn.  However it is super expensive so we have to wait till Tuesday to get it cause they have an awesome deal on Tuesdays.  The other catch is these shops are only in big cities, so Chyulu doesn't get the chance for pizza cause it is straight bush.  Anywho so it worked out that we had zone conference on a Tuesday, so all the Chyulu elders and me and my comp went to get pizza, much happiness was shared, and much pizza was destroyed.  

As for teaching stories we didn't get many appointments this week, because with zone conference we were really only in our area for two days, so we were meeting all people we needed to strengthen and so not many fun stories on that side of things.

Anyways, have a good week, till next time, bike fast take chances, watch out for mangoes, they can be hazardous.

Elder Tucker

*Mom has looked through Elder Tucker's companions older posts but I can't find the story about Mangos in his words. So here is a paraphrase as to why Mangoes are hazardous. Missionaries are told to wash and at times boil the outsides of all fruit. The missionaries noticed that the Mangoes on the tree looked good. They did just what Teron would do and polished the germs off, ate a Mango and were very very sick. Teron's companion taught him about the Mangoes so Teron did not have to have the same experience.
