Made it to Manila

This is just supposed an email about how we are safe and here and things, but i'm gonna count it as my first official letter :) It has to be quick tho! I arrived in Manila and wow it is crazy!  The people are honestly sooooo nice, but they drive so wacky... I flew with Elder Zasliger until tokyo and then we slowly picked up like 7 Elders, but no sisters. No one ever picked us up from the airport either... so we had to find a ride to the Hotel we were staying at and I was all alone with no Sister companion... haha it was terrifying, but luckily Sister Henzlinger came from Australiia to stay with me at like 2am. Then we had to wake up at 5am, which I got no sleep anyway so it's fine.. Now i'm in the MTC and wow I swear everyone knows Tagalog... haha this is going to be crazy. I'm out of time, but just know im doing good. It is very hot and humid here, but the people are awesome. My first companion is Sister Vaoesea. I'll tell you more about her next time. My Pday is Friday soooooo write me. I love you all so much. :)

Love, 
Sister Barton
