Mormon church meeting in Mexico

There is a local ward (congregation) in San Carlos, so that is where we went to church on Sunday.  The girls were really curious about it, what the church would look like, how they would understand everything spoken in Spanish, and so forth.
The church building turned out to be a small, new building that looked fresh and clean AND had awesome air conditioning.  The chapel was tiled and had nice stackable chairs instead of low carpet and pews.  Very comfortable.
Because there are a lot of English-speaking vacationers, there was a bit of translation available.  A bilingual man had a laptop with a projector and a Word document up, then typed the main points of what was being said on the document and it was projected on the wall behind the speakers.  It worked just fine, although I did miss a lot of the details.  I was able to understand enough Spanish to get the gist of what the speakers were saying anyway.
Here we are with our wonderful friends and hosts.  They made it tons of fun for us and made us feel very comfortable.
