Transfered to Hyderabad

hey everyone! hows it goin. well im here in hyderabad and its great! its a lot different than the village life im used to. haha. i have ate dominoes, mcdonalds, subway,kfc. already so thats cool. its quite a bit hoter here than in my other area but rainy season is trying to start and of course e barr isnt prepared. haha. so my second day was completly wet and was walking down streets with water above my ankles. haha. it feels nice to be of my cycle too. haha. now im back to jumping on and off busses that dont stop. so its definatly different but i love it here already. everyone has asked questions about the new area and my living conitions so ill do my best. haha. we stay in a big complex that is pretty nice. our room has a/c so that is nice :) well a/c in india is more like a swamp cooler but still its nice. haha. me and my comp are doing great. we are having a lot of fun and teaching well together. we laugh a lot and ints nice to be with someone who we both understand eachother. haha. hyderabad is a nice place. its kinda different because there are a lot of muslems and seeks. seeks are the ones who have the turbans and all that cool stuff. haha. when we went to chuch on sunday i was in aww at how nice the building was. its huge! all of the members are great and they fellowship non members so well. and thats really how missionary works the best, when members are the ones supporting the work. our job as full time missionaries is just to bring them. it was different not to have to have responsibility during church to teach and all that. but im looking foreward to be able to work here in this branch. anyways the works is going great here and were working hard to find some new investigators to work with. we found a family from nepal that speak great english and are very good so ill try to keep you updated on that. but im doing great and am happy here in hyderabad. hope all is good back home. love you.elder barr
