On a day recently, Saturday September 3rd, we were taken by a couple of YSA's to the Szeged annual Fish Soup Festival. We had a nice bowl of paprika-ish fish soup. (carp actually-but not bad) Here is a picture of the Dragon boat races that they were holding on the Tisza River. The Tisza runs right through the center of Szeged. The next time we publish, we promise to have some pictures of the city itself. Much of it is very picturesque.

Mixing with the local statuary.

This is a Sleeping Beauty type castle adjacent to Hero's Square. Don't ask us the real name of the place. We don't know. It's neat though, huh?

10 days after moving into Szeged we made a trip back to Budapest to take some YSA's to a conference. Here we are taking a P-Day tour of Hero's Square. The office couple, the Baggozi's, took us around.

This, of course, is the kitchen. If it seems that our apartment is a little larger than the usual senior couple apartment, you are right. We are lucky to have such ample space. It will be very helpful as we hold FHE and other activities for the Young Single Adults.

The front door and dining area. Our door has three locks. One of them is white bar below the windows.

Our Bathroom.

The wardrobe and storage end of our bedroom.

Our pink living room where we hold YSA FHE.

This is looking us at our apartment door, the one in the corner above and to the left of Andrea. The place looks a little messier when people have their wash out to dry.

This is the view looking down from in front of our apartment door.

But it is nicer on the inside. This is the downstairs courtyard of the building.

Here is Andrea outside our building, it looks a little crummy on the outside.

On the 24th we drove to our assigned area in Szeged. We took the 4 Szeged Elders out for dinner as a thank-you for helping find where our apartment was and for getting our luggage out the stairs. From left to right--Elder Müller (from Switzerland), Elder Rummler, Elder Van Wie, and Elder Neeley.

We flew out of SL City on August 22nd. On the 23rd we were in Hungary. Here we are in front of the Church headquarters in Budapest. Do we look jet-lagged?

We pose together at the MTC.

Nathan showing us all where he's going to spent the next two years, Dallas, Texas-Spanish Speaking!

Andrea and Tom are pointing at Hungary. Andrea didn't want to look funny lifting her arm so high and so she look funny pointing at Egypt.

Andrea and I entered the MTC on the following Monday and were able to see Nathan every day of the week that we were there.

This is Nathan at his farewell brunch at Kneader's before entering the MTC on Wednesday.

We flew out on Monday morning and spent the evening and night at Brian and Claudia's in Heber City. On Tuesday we spent the day in SL City, the high point being attending the SL Temple.

This is the three of us at our triple setting apart on August 7, 2011. Andrea and Nathan were set apart by President Perry and Tom was set apart by President Zimmerman.
I love all the pictures. It's nice to see your place so when I read your emails I can get a better picture in my head of where you are. Keep the pictures coming.
