These are pictures from Cameron from when the Typhone that hit the Philippines last month. He said that he woke up on Wednesday morning about 4 AM to someone telling him he needed to get out, just as his "Flip Flops" were floating by. The water stain on the door shows how high the water was.
This is the Elders cleaning up after the flood, I guess this is why there is no carpet on the floors. Cameron said that when they were able to return to their apartment the whole house reaked of FISH...yeah, that would need some bleach if you ask me. On top of the fish smell, the power had been turned off, so everything in the fridge was pretty gross too. Where's the scentsy when you need it???
So after looking at these pictures my question to Cameron was what got ruined. Lucky for him only his backpack and shoes were soaked, but he said his shoes "Stunk" so bad, he put them in the sun for a few days, then they were okay. Good thing he has good sandals to wear, just in case. The funny thing about this, is that just a week earlier he was kinda complaining about no Hurricane hitting, he wanted to have the experience. So, I gusess you could say "He asked for it". Be careful what you ask for Cam, we want you to come back in one piece to us!
Elder Leavit has had four companions in the last 6-weeks. This is his tempory companion, Elder Dasargo. He was waiting for his mission call, so he was only Camerons companion for about a week.
These are two more of Elder Leavitt's temporary companions. Cameron is looking pretty good, must be the FISH and Rice diet! He wrote last week and said that he will not be transfered this time, and will be in this area for Christmas. So, he has been in this area for 9-months now. I told him he must have something he needs to learn or do before he can be transfered. We are counting the days until CHRISTMAS, when he will be able to call. We love hearing his voice and learning all about life in the Philippines. Thanks Elder Leavitt for sharing these pictures. And thanks to all of you for remembering him during the Holidays!
