Week 16

After studies we went to Sunny Hills Apartment and played a game of munchkin. We all then went to max muscle and got In body tests. The member that owns the chain gives missionaries free In Bodies which would other wise be $30. The In body tells you about all your weight and muscle distribution among other things. We went to Jamba Juice after. We went back to the apartment and picked up our hats. Sunny Hills took us to a hat shop were we ordered custom hats. Then we all went to the church building for zone activity. We long boarded in the parking lot for a while. When the activity was over we picked up some little caesars for dinner with Sunny Hills.
