TEMPLE WORK, PARTIES, AND CASTLES
I cannot believe how
fast time flies now. We are so busy at the Temple and we are pretty
tired when we get done for the day. Two weeks ago we were busy preparing
for the Dittli Farewell-Wagner Welcome party which we were in charge
of because of our new assignment as “Social Directors”. Brother
and Sister Dittli had that responsibility and they returned home on September 2 and we have now been given that wonderful opportunity.

The
party was a big success thanks to a lot of help. We had a “Mexican”
theme with chicken burritos with the fixins', Bean dip (of sorts),
Spanish Rice plus the usual wonderful desserts, salads and drinks.
Dale and I had found some decorations in the “missionary room”
and we bought some cute planters which we gave to anyone who wanted
one. President Husz gave a wonderful farewell and welcome “speech”
and gave the Dittlis a memory book – which we had all given pages
for – and gifts. I think everyone had a great time.
The Food!
Monday was a wonderful day. The weather was overcast but not rainy, so it was cool and delightful for sightseeing. We went to Meissen again and this time we toured the Church and the Castle which is the Albrechtsburg Schloss. We also ate at a wonderful Restaurant. Monday

We
got to Meissen in time to enjoy the Organ Music at Noon for about a
half hour. It was very classical and Dale actually almost fell asleep
– but I enjoyed it! I actually did a video of two of the songs –
but pretty much just did an audio recording. We climbed very narrow and winding steps to get to...... this view of the Organ! There was a beautiful Garden
at the Church and it was all very peaceful. The outside of the Castle is awesome and white in stark contrast to the blackened church.
