Well today this letter comes from an apple store in Kowloon Tong. If any 
of you are wondering they do not celebrate Halloween in Hong Kong. 
   Last p-day we went to a museum it was awesome I will include some 
pictures. One of the things we got to see was the document that succeeded Hong 
Kong to the UK. Supper cool.
   I am really enjoying the city. It is not as hot anymore so that is good. 
The city is really beautiful at night. Sometimes it feels like we are on a space 
ship and they just made stuff look like earth. There is no grass anywhere, but 
there is just enough trees to not go crazy haha. 
   I got to speak in church this week. That was fun and I don't think that 
I made any catastrophic errors. So the character that identifies me has two 
separate pieces and I don't know the name for the different pieces so I just 
he'd my hand up in a 5 because it is the same sound. So later after the meeting 
the second councilor in the bishopric came up and said "Elder 5 Elder 5" in 
English it was really funny. All of our investigators are progressing well so 
that is awesome with any luck if they keep their commitments we should have 3 
baptisms this transfer. 
   Another adventure was that on Thursday my companion is a Zone Leader so 
he had meetings so I got thrown into another companionship and had to cover 
one of our appointments. Later Elder Cornillis (who is another trainee with 
me) had to teach a lesson all by ourselves. It went really well. Gift of tongues 
is real.
This is how he ended this letter.  I'm thinking he sent it before he was completely finished!
I sent Gordon a short list of questions here are the questions and his answers...  
What is your church building like?
Two floors and hard wood pews

 This is how long the subway trains are. Absolutely massive and they they are 
packed with people
We got to go to the Island for zone training and this is the biggest building 
I've ever seen

more Mercedes cars was in Germany
