Zach Conquering Portugal!!

"im sorry momma, i dont have hardly any time today:/ a member from our ward invited us to go to the gym with him, so we're about to go do that, but i really wanted to send some pictures!! i love you all so much and im praying for you all every night!! oh and yea for this transfer both my comp and i are staying here in tomar!(: if you get a chance read 1 Peter 4: 12 - 13(its about trials) Romans 8:35 - 39(its about God's love for us) and D&C 122(the whole thing, its about the importance of temple work, and verse 22 is one of my favorite scriptures!!) (and its my lax number!! woo-hoo!!) i love you all so much!! gotta go!!(:"









Zach sends a ton of pics! This is his ward and a typical Zach pose. I think the little boy in the bottom pic is trying to copy Zach! So CUTE!!












"this was our ward on sunday! we had a pretty good turn out!"












Zach takes a tour

"we got to tour this freakin rad castle last monday! its so unbelievably huge inside haha! maybe if you get a chance check it out on google, it was pretty gnarly!

this is elder beckstrand and i (i call him Becky) inside the castle, we went for a very mature missionary pose, as you can see(;"






































Zach scares the snot out of me in typical Zach style…


"we walked along the outer wall of the castle for a while cuz you can see just about all of Tomar, and then the forest out behind the castle. the first pic is me standing on the edge of the wall, it was probably about a 100ft drop to the forest, and you could see fricken everything. and then the other one is one of the archer towers along the wall. one of the members in our ward came with us as a guide, and he's super cool, but gets a little butt-hurt at stuff, so us missionaries wanted to be climbing all over, but he kept getting mad. so i waited till he walked around a corner and then climbed up real quick to take a picture haha, the castle was so cool. we're gonna try to go back soon without him this time and do some more climbing!(:"



"you cant see it, but this well drops for like 75 feet, and then its just a huge stone pit for holding a crapton of water (dont worry, i got it in one of the videos) and so i thought it would be fun to hang over it haha
and then this is the same well.... im just putting it to better use(; i got in trouble for that one hahahaha("





Zach show us the delicious delicacies in Portugal… YUCK!!
"and this is some of the nice sight seeing you can do(: almost all the meat stores have windows outside so walking by you can see them, and late at night when youre hungry they look really good haha. and this is Kid meat (a fricken baby goat) haha, most grocery stores have fricken nasty meat and fish sections. so the whole store usually smells like fish and guts, and you can usually see skinned and gutted goats, chickens, rabbits, sometimes foxes, and last week we were pretty sure we saw a cat haha.
