Waiting, waiting, waiting to get the call that Cameron had made it safe to Brazil. I was in a class, Jason was loading cows, and the girls were home when we got the e-mail!  I jumped up and ran out of my class and before I could even read Cam's e-mail I hurried to text Jason and the girls. I wanted to make sure they had received the e-mail also. I sat down to breathe and cried before even reading the e-mail.  It was so wonderful to read these words and I know Jas and the girls had the same feelings of relief.  He e-mailed saying:

I made it here safely after a long day of traveling.  Slept a little on the plane, wasn't too bad but still way tired.  My companion is Elder Davis from Flagstaff, AZ.  My roommates are cool.  We get two Brazilian roommates tomorrow so we will have 6 in a room.  The missionaries are way cool and friendly. They all try to speak Portuguese to us.  But, they do know a little English.  I love it here, it is so awesome.  I've already made some missionary friends.  My P day is a week from Wednesday so I will talk to you then.  Love you guys so much.  Talk to you soon.
