Well, this week was a weird week.
First I gotta start with Tuesday. A member of our ward from Vietnam
(baptized here in Kōfu) wanted to go out to eat with us. He said he
wanted to go to a place called Bonchi. I've definitely heard about
this place before from previous Kōfu missionaries. This place serves
INSANE portions of food for super cheap prices. It was really good but
so SO much food... I actually managed to get through my tanmen
however. I was the only one to finish what I had ordered of our group.
However Cuff Chōrō got the biggest thing they offer. It was absolutely
ridiculous how much there was. We were pretty impressed by how far he
got. It's funny how the people that work there trolled us as well.
Farnsworth asked if he could get something smaller and normal sized.
The guy thought that was ridiculous and told him so. When Cuff Chōrō
was trying to get through that mountain of food, he asked the guys
wife if anyone had eaten the whole thing before. She said yes, a woman
has done it. We laughed pretty hard at that. Cuff Chōrō is still
feeling the sting I think. Haha.
So, a lot of the members in Kōfu have farms and such. (We have so much
corn from the ward it's ridiculous. And vegetables too.) last week a
member of our ward asked if we would come help her out in her corn
field. So we all went and weeded her corn field. After that we ate
some peaches from her orchard (because apparently she owns like an
entire mountain.) while we looked out over the beautiful summery
mountain sunset. It was pretty great to say the least. Kōfu has some
good looking country for sure.
Last weekend we had zone conference so it was my first time leaving
Yamanashi prefecture since I first got here. We had to wake up a
little early to take the three hour train ride out to Takao where the
meeting was. Luckily we were able to schedule splits with the zone
leaders in Hachiōji on the day after so instead of returning to Kōfu,
we went to Hachiōji for splits.
When we got back to Kōfu Saturday night we arrived just in time for
the fire show. I think I need to start seriously considering swinging
fire around as my future career...
