TRAVELING FRIENDS

These are the Woods. They serve in Visak and are from Independence Missouri....but retired to Florida. He served as a Secret Service Agent and has also served as a Stake President. We've grown to love them as we enjoyed our missions together. They have 2 children. His son is now an agent. They go home in December.
Elder & Sister Nielson are from Paradise Utah. He photographs everything and she keeps us laughing. I love when she tells me how to pronounce someones Indian name. That's something I'll have to show you...I can't tell you on paper!!! They also serve in Visak and their go home date is in March. We look forward to future visits after the mission.

Elder Palla served with us in 4th branch. He is now a district leader in Goa and his companion is Elder Shaumberg. Elder Palla is from Visak and the Wood's met him before he left on his mission. We had a little reunion get together at the Mariott and ate dinner. It was so good to spend time with him again.


Here we are! Fine Dining in Goa....Not really. The food was OK. There are better places to eat in Hyderabad.

All the green scenery reminds me of Ecuador. I loved all the pictures! You are making some really good friends for life. It is nice that you get to meet other missionaries from the states so you can keep in touch and visit at least.
