Senior Missionary P-Day

P-days are always fun for Senior Missionary.  We began the day with a tour of a Silver Factory, which was very interesting.  Today's silver craftsman uses the same methods developed thousands of years ago.  The tools are modern, but the techniques are the same.  Hammers, lost wax casting, and small hand tools do the job in hands of skilled workers.

A bike ride along the ocean was great fun. We rented bikes and rode for a couple of hours on cliffs high above the Pacific Ocean with President and Sister Cardon (the MTV President), Elder and Sister Parkard ( The Counselors for the Area). Afterward biking we went to Inca Market and Parque Kennedy to Shop.

I know this does not reflect the 50 hour work week we put in, but who would be interested to read about that.  Sign-up for a Mission and have your own fun.  Peru is the greatest place.
