We made it into Concepcion and had another bit a bad luck, our hotel didn't have our reservations and didn't have any empty rooms. So they sent us to another hotel. At the new hotel, the receptionist spoke English really well. We asked him where he learned his English. He told us he served a Mormon Mission in California! It was cool to talk to this guy. He told us where they think the new temple in Concepcion will be built.
Then we got to see some of Camron's old apartments and saw the Mission Office. We went to visit with some members in one of his old areas. We visited with the family most of the day and were able to eat dinner with them as well. It was so fun to see the people Camron served. They have a such a great love for Camron. It was fun to get to know these people. I did my best to communicate with them, but with my limited spanish, Camron had to help a lot!!
That night we got a late start to our next city. We thought it would only take us 2 hours or less because it was only around 100 miles. Little did we know that the "highway" google map told us to take would become a ONE LANE DIRT ROAD that took us over a MOUNTAIN PASS!! The drive took us forever!! AND it was in the middle of the night!! On a positive note, we stopped the car at one time and could see millions and millions of stars. They were so beautiful! Needless to say we were sure grateful when we got to our hotel that night.
