New President

Hi Everyone!
  Things have been good this week. There's been a few interesting happenings and such, including being able to welcome the new mission president, which is pretty cool.
  On Monday, we went to Halmstad and played cards with some other missionaries and members for p day. It was good fun. I had a chance to try Bang in a full-fledged 7 player game, which was pretty fun. It's a pretty good game. We also played some basketball and ate at a pretty dang good sushi buffet (with pretty dang spicy wasabi). All in all, a pretty good day.
  On Tuesday we had our open church time, which all in all went well. A (one of our investigators) showed up and I ended up spending an hour or two playing with her two year old son, which was pretty tiring but was pretty fun as well. It was nice to have something to do during open church. And it was nice being able to chat with A and her son.
  On Thursday we went up to Göteborg for a sort of zone conference thing. We got our new mission president this week, and we were there for a "meet and greet," which sort of meant that we would listen to their introduction and have the chance to say hi to him and such. It went well. He seems like a really nice guy. It seems like he likes fun and trying to make things interesting. It'll be interesting to see what the following months have in store.
  On Friday we got to have a Forth of July celebration at A's apartment (which is kind of funny because she's not American at all, but she likes America a lot and invited all of the Americans from the ward over). It was a lot of fun, with a lot of hamburgers and fries and such. There weren't any fireworks, I'm afraid (it's too light to be able to see them anyways), but it was still fun being able to talk with everyone and enjoy the good food and everything. And we played Kubb, which was fun too. Anyways, I enjoyed it.
Hope all is well with you and have a great week.
