We have survived two days. We are getting to feel a little more comfortable. Yesterday when we lined up to register we were so surprised to have Elwin and Shirley Davis in front of us. They were part of the China Teachers Program the year we were in China. Actually they were on the same flight from Vancouver to Beijing as we were when we went to China and both Elwin and Bob had a suitcase that didn't turn up for a while. They were the only people we knew the first day. We have been divided into districts and we are with four other couples so we are starting to know a few of the Senior couples.
Still no cheesecake.
I am dreading tomorrow. We have to teach a lesson on the restoration to someone and we will be videoed and critiqued.
Every Tuesday evening there is a devotional. Tonight Elder and Sister Bednar talked. He taught about the difference between doctrine (truths), principles (guidelines) and applications and stressed teaching doctrine. The MTC choir sang a beautiful number. There must have been 500 in the choir - perhaps even more.
Bob went to the IT office today and got the information to log into the secure internet and now we have Skype and also facebook (which we don't use anyway).
We had a few snow showers today.
Still Alive!

Fear not, there will be cheesecake waiting for you in Nova Scotia when you arrive! (Or brownies, or pecan pie, whichever you prefer.)
