The lighthouse at Formentor, Mallorca

The background shows sidewalk tiles - "rajoles" - that pave the sidewalks throughout Barcelona. They were designed by architect Puig i Cadafalch for the entryway of a home. Since 1915, they have been used by the city to pave sidewalks, and have become emblematic of the city. One of the city's most famous chocolatiers, Enric Rovira, produces chocolate bars in the shape and design of these tiles.

More Help Arrives - Elder Harris!

Elder Harris had been working temporarily in the California Los Angeles Mission waiting for his visa. It is always a good day when a new missionary finally arrives!

 Elder Harris is being trained by Elder Ames in the Inca Branch on the island of Mallorca. Because the airlines only allow one bag on the flights to Mallorca, Elder Harris did some quick repacking before leaving the office (we store his other bag at the office).

 Elder Atkin, who once served on the the island, gives some packing tips to Elder Harris
