| My last week in the mission field FLEW by. I never imagined I would be at this point and Oda Shimai had to keep reminding me I was going home my last transfer. I didn't pack until the day before I went to the honbu because I just didn't want to be trunky and didn't want to waste any time. It was crazy busy visiting people until the very end. I couldn't have been more lucky or blessed. We had so many people to visit and so much to do that it couldn't have been more overwhelming. I |

| Driving with Yamashiro Kyoudai and Nishino Shimai to visit people. We went to a Okinawa store because Yamashiro Kyoudai is from Okinawa and loves it. We visited his sister and his mom, who were both super nice. Then we visited two of the Peruvian sisters who are just the most loving people in the world. (her hugs are magical) and then saw Takagi Shimai. |
