Stairway to Heaven..

Here are a few key pionts from my Mothers Day conversation with Elder Al P.

He's having a pretty hard time with the language - he say's he doesn't mind the "rathole" he lives in, "la cucaracha" as his roommates, or his room that is a "toilet / sink / shower" - but he does mind that he can't understand anything that is being said to him. He said he doesn't talk to people because he's afraid they'll talk back!

He had a baptism on Sunday - he said it was a miracle!

Although his spirits are a little low, he seems to be smiling and hasn't lost his sense of humor, as depicted in the pictures below!

This is the stairway to his apartment on the 3rd floor! Looks a tiny bit like a war zone!

Don't leave your car unattended in Mexico City!

Ghetto boy!
I think he's on his last belt loop! Wow- so skinny!
Still Smilin'!
