Well hello everyone! Most of you probably already know what my past week or so has been like. On Thursday, March 15th, I flew out of Copenhagen. When I got there the security was on strike, the lines were so loooonnnngggg. Thankfully by the time I checked in my bags and was ready to go through security the strike had ended. So it was about a 9 hour flight from Copenhagen to D.C. I had a 3 hour delay in D.C. which was nice. I then flew from D.C. to Salt Lake. It felt like a longer flight than the 9 hour to D.C.. But I arrived in Salt Lake at about 10.30 where I was met by Mom, Papa, Colby, and Devin. It was really good. We then drove to Bountiful and stayed the night. The next day Devin and Torrie were married in the LDS Bountiful Temple. It was wonderful beautiful day even if the wind was blowing like crazy. After the wedding everyone headed to Olive Garden for a wonderful dinner, after dinner we headed to Green River. Saturday we had a reception in Green River, where Torrie is from. It was really fun. After the reception we drove home to little ol' Lander. It was nice to be back in my own bed. Actually, when I arrived and was with everyone it felt like I had never really left, like I had just fallen asleep and woken up. I was put in charge of the newest member of our family other than Torrie, Mak the dog. He is a springer spaniel, chocolate lab. He looks like a springer spaniel though. He is the cutest little thing int he whole entire world! So I spent the whole week doing all kinds of things such as getting my drivers license and taking a test and going to help in school, going on horse rides and many other things. It was a very fun busy though. On Friday night Colby had his Eagle Court of Honor which went really well. On Saturday I spent the whole day at the church setting up for the reception the night. The reception was beautiful. We had a great turn out. It was so good to see everyone. On Sunday I went to church and after church mom and I headed off to Salt Lake again. It was harder saying goodbye this time than when I said goodbye the first time. It was so hard leaving my family and that tiny little puppy. I hate goodbyes. But this was not a goodbye it was a "see ya in 3 months!" That's right! Only 3 months left. The plan is that I will go home on July 12th so that I am able to go on the trek. So on Monday I got up at 5 a.m. and flew out of Salt Lake at 8.30 a.m.. I flew to D.C. and then to Copenhagen from there. Everything went perfectly, no delays, no strikes, no problems. I got into Copenhagen at about 7.30 a.m. Tuesday morning. I then took the 9.30 train from the Copenhagen airport to Laholm where Matilda picked me up. I went to Ann's house because Katrine, Calle, and their family had already left to Norway. I will be in Ann's place until tomorrow then I will be moving the rotary councilors place in Halmstad on Thursday evening. I will probably only be there for a month then after that I have no idea where I am going. I am quite jet lagged but doing ok :). Hope everyone is doing great!
Love,
Micah
