Elder Davenport's district went to the beach last P-day. Had fun, but Michael got sick on "a rotten feijoa". A feijoa is a fruit that has a pulpy center. From Wikipedia: "The fruit (of the feijoa) matures in autumn and is green, ellipsoid-shaped and the size of a chicken egg. It has a sweet, aromatic flavor. The flesh is juicy and is divided into a clear jelly-like seed pulp and a firmer, slightly gritty opaque flesh nearer the skin. The fruit drops when ripe, but can be picked from the tree prior to the drop to prevent bruising. This plant is monotypic in its genus. Like the closely-related guava, the fruit pulp has a gritty texture which is utilized in some natural cosmetic products as an exfoliant. Feijoa fruit have a distinctive smell. "
Then he got the flu.
He is loving his mission and is working hard.
Now, isn't this Michael we all know and love?

That is amazing, Juliann was also sick with the stomach flu around the same time. Wow! As always, our prayers are with him as with your family.
It's great to see Mike looking so fullfilled. Looks like the work is moving forward.
The best part of the picture is the fact that the sign says
"Due to unstable ground and falling rocks NO access beyond this point."
