So, I'm Told Armenian is Waaaaay Easier Than Georgian

        It's been longer than normal since my last email. But I'm in Georgian. So that's neat. We flew into Armenia through Moscow which was very nice. Some of the Armenian missionaries did not enjoy our overseas flight, but I slept very well so it was good. We stayed a couple nights at an Armenia hotel, and met with the mission president and his family. We did some street contacting in Yerevan. I totally placed a pamphlet about the restoration of Christ's gospel. My Armenian is quite good, and that is why I'm convinced that Georgian is significantly harder than Armenian. Anyway. 
        I said my goodbyes to all the Armenians, and the mission president and his family drove me from Yerevan to Tbilisi. It was a very long drive but the scenery was really pretty and it was good to catch up on a bit of sleep. We got in late so I met my trainer, Elder Hunt. He's been out for a year and a half. It seems that he'll be a good teacher for the next three months. He also said that Armenia is technically a six week language in the MTC.  Please confirm. 
        My first full day in country, we had a baptismal service and a zone conference, so I got to meet a lot of the members of one branch and all the Georgian missionaries. They're all very fun and it's awesome to have people to speak the language to. We've been busy. We have met with a few people, but since we've had so many special events we haven't been super super jam packed busy. 
        One more cool thing. The next Fast and Furious movie is filming in Tbilisi literally on the street we live on in Delisi. Yes we saw Vin Diesel and John Cena. That's all I've got for now, but I'll be back next Monday with more news საქართველოდან.
