Julia didn't have very much time to write a nice, long letter so here is a little more information about what she is doing. She loves her companion. Yeah! This makes me very happy. She said all the sisters are very obedient, hard workers. She loves her district. She says Australia is great and has noticed a few fun differences between the US and Australia. Raisin Bran is called Sultana Bran and granola bars are called muesli bars. Most of the members in her area are Islanders. She has enjoyed getting to learn about a different culture. They are very loving toward her. She has seen a giant spider, but luckily the elders killed it. Her favorite thing about being a missionary is teaching a great lesson. She sounds happy! Thank you all for supporting her and praying for her. We appreciate it so much!

This has been the stinkiest week. We went over our
kilometer limit on our car, so we've had to bike for the last few days.
It would be fine if our area weren't so big! We had to bike half an hour
to Point Cook and half an hour home. There's one road that takes
forever to bike, and at night it's totally infested with bugs. It's like
biking through a sandstorm, but with bugs! One of them flew in my
mouth. Yuck. On the bright side, that road is right though the middle of
some sheep farms, so all these cute sheep come up to the fences and
just lie there. You can get pretty close before they get spooked and
they're SO CUTE. I like to reassure them that I don't want to eat them
like everyone else here does.
