Week 96 Bergen Norway

 Eg e i Bergen!! 

    Oh man this week has been so good! I was so hyped when I pulled up to Bergen to see they had great weather. Bergen receives rain almost 300 days out of the year and in 2017 it rained every day. So we're starting off good! We had some sweet lessons with some less actives and did a lot of finding to find more people to teach! We joined some basketball Facebook groups and pulled up on some dudes that said they were on the division 1 team here in Norway We whooped them 10 games to 4. First 3 games I couldn't make a bucket to save my life but then I started finishing my layups and my pull up jumper was deadly. The Lord was definitely helping me cause I couldn't miss that thing... sadly it was only in the last 3 games. But then we called through the old area book and this 5 time champion boxer had been taught before and he invited us to a free boxing session. It was probably one of the top 5 hardest workouts of my LIFE... holy cow this guy was insane. We were doing so many things and the endurance boxers have is just unreal. It didn't help that I haven't been in a gym in over 2 years but still. After we finished our warmup and "jab training" we threw on the gloves and went to town. Me and Temp were matched up and we had this little pad that we put on our stomachs and then just threw hands it was so funny. I was NOT expecting the blow and Temp knocked the wind out of me first throw I started laughing so hard. Then I got my shot and went off on him it was so funny our abs kill now and our shoulders hurt too but the funniest part was Elder Ence (our other comp who's been out 5 months and I'm in a trio now) got lined up with some Brazilian dude who went off on him and he was just getting lit up it was so funny! Then the guy invited us back to a free kickboxing class and said we could have a sit down conversation sometime as well which was dope. His name is Trevor Ambrose, he's a bloke from Lestor and had 500 fights back in his day. Dudes a G! 

    Another funny thing is we were contacting on the trolley and a bunch of pretty Norwegian girls got on and Elder Ence wasn't holding on and when the trolley took off he fell into a guy and the crowd of girls and we just lost it, they all kept looking at us and we couldn't stop laughing... and then he gets up and was just red faced and then turns to us and says, "geez that was awkward, they were so pretty! Do the girls here eat different or something?" hahaha it was so funny we lost it and couldn't stop laughing until we got home! We're like best buds and work so hard together but we're having the time of our lives! Another funny story is when we had to find another bed for us because we're in a trio. We were moving this massive closet thing and Elder Templeton slipped on his blanket and the shelf just landed on him and he started squealing and me and Ence just lost it hahah he's ok but we broke one leg on the closet, nothing a couple books couldn't fix. 

Hope you all have a good week!
