Bound for the promised land :)

Finally! Going to Spain! Elder Ryan Coombs, with the other Spain visa waiters from the Ogden, Utah mission are reporting to the Provo, Utah MTC to get their visas processed by a visiting consulate authority.

Vamos a Espania!! I Thought I'd send my quick update! We got here in the MTC and got all of our stuff signed.The guy was telling us about how it was a little on both ends in Madrid and Los Angeles as to why it has taken so long. Basically, they had a slow few months from August to January and were really understaffed, so our stuff sat on the desk. But, everyone should get visas pretty quick now, they are optimistic and hired new staff. Sounds like all of the newly called won't have to wait. So we fly out to JFK tomorrow morning, fly out from there to Barcelona, flying all night and arriving the next morning in sunny Spain! We are all super stoked! There are a lot of missionaries heading out today, tomorrow and next week. There are a lot more for Madrid and Malaga, only a few we have met headed for Barcelona. Elder Miskin has been in the MTC call center the whole time. He leaves Tuesday. Also, I saw Elder Hunter Black (Skylers brother) here when we arrived this morning, He is leaving for Costa Rica soon. That is all my news.. I will see if I have a chance to call from New York. Os quiero!
