 The Elders came over here Last night to get the rest of Elder Sciclunas clothes that were being washed. He will be leaving tomorrow for East London and then on to Cape Town on a new mission assignment.  They didn’t leave here till around 11 pm.  A little past mission time, but it is what it is.  We will miss him.  We also will be going to Fish River Sun restaurant for breakfast, as per Elder Sciclunas request.  It's supposed to be really good and special price on Wednesday. 

We did go the Fish River Sun for breakfast and their omelet is very good.  

 We had a great last visit with Elder Scicluna and took a few more photos.  

 When we left President said it would be OK to give him a hug, which I did.  I got a great one back.  Elder Dale will be back later today with  a new companion who he will bring over tonight. 

Both Rick and I had a hard day today.  We feel our security blanket is gone and will be lost for a bit without Elder Scicluna.  He has done so much for us and always so dependable.  We and the branch are going to miss him greatly.
