We took another flying trip to Lisboa on Monday to get our residency card. We stayed all night in the Mission home and went to thegovernment office early the next morning and stood in line for 4 hours. We had to be photographed again and we finally got our number. But, we get the card later. Gale then had to go down and stand in line for another hour to get his drivers license. They talked to the guy and he had to have a sight, and hearing test before he can get that. So we waited around the Mission office until 5:30 for that appointment. Now when he comes back to Lisbon that is at least out of the way. Lisbon isn't a little jaunt either, it's 3 hours from here. After all that we picked up a small freezer from some other missionaries who were transfered to the Azores. Loaded it in our car along with a Missionary returning to his district and took the long way around to deliver him then get home about 12:30. What a day! PS:

Love you all. Dad is getting to be a very good Portuguese driver. He handles those roundabouts with ease. In Portugal the shotgun driver is the co-driver since some of the lights can't be seen by the driver. Also, it takes two .MOM
