Bethel

This morning we went to the Australian Branch office of Jehovah's Witnesses for a tour and then lunch following. It was really fun and interesting to see another branch operate and we got to see a lot of what is going on nearby, especially in the Pacific islands. There is a printery there, and the presses they have are the "hand-me-downs" from Walkill. And of course, lunch was fun and very good also.

Of course I went along with Raleigh and Laura, but we also invited a young brother, 19 or so, from the Netherlands - who also happens to be visiting Laura's hall right now - along. It was his first visit to Australia as well, so him and I were in the same boat.

We did meet quite a few people, and I won't go into too many details now, but maybe when I come back...

As for what we did Monday: not much, just some shopping and stuff, nothing too exciting, but still fun to see the city (we were mainly in Balmain). We did have a really cool thunderstorm here though - that was cool to watch.

Well, I'll be going to bookstudy in a few hours, and need to study my lesson so I'll stop here. More to come later...
