Happy Valentine's Day!!

We went out to an Italian restaurant not to far from the JAS center for dinner on Valentine's Day.  We randomly picked a restaurant and it was fantastic!!  We enjoyed sitting out on the street and ate dinner.  We hope that all of you had a wonderful Valentine's Day!!

This is what is hanging up at the JAS center!  We love all of the wonderful young adults!!  They are the best!!  We have waited a long time to finally be here and it was all worth it!!

Here are a few pics of some of the young adults at Institute class on last friday night.  We are at the JAS center.

They make life so much fun!!

We love them all so much!!

Filling out their JAS info sheet.

Reed always being so helpful!! (hahahaha!)

This is the gothic cathedral in the Pueblo of Acursa which is in the north end of the Island.  We were visiting young adults in this area with the Sister Missionaries.  The pueblo was so beautiful!!

This is in front of the Cathedral looking out over the mountains from Acursa.  We bought bread and really good chocolate filled goodies!

This is the view from one of our young adults house.  We had to drive up a very steep hill to get there.  She walks up and down this very steep hill everyday!!  I am so impressed!!  You can see the ocean off in the distance.  It is so blue in real life!

This is in the pueblo of Guia and if you look close, you can see that there are caves that people live in.  (I am sorry that I am all of a sudden typing in italics, but I don't know why it is doing this and can't fix it)  The pueblos were all so beautiful!!  We drove through many beautiful and small streets!

Welcome to Carnaval!!  It is huge here!!  It has been going on basically the whole time that we have been here!  This weekend is the last weekend and it seems to get even bigger!!  A lot of people dress up and go to the nightly festivities!  We see them on the street but haven't really been to affected because we stay away from the Carnaval areas.
