Goodbye Boise Hello Bogota

Back in 2!

Dallin -aka Elder Hilton- jumped on a plane early yesterday morning headed for the MTC in Bogota Columbia.

Lots of smiles and laughter at the airport were mixed with heart wrenching goodbyes.

Sierra loses it with her final hug.

After a layover in Houston, Dallin touched down

in Bogota around 9pm the same day.

Thanks to Google's street view, we get a close look at the foreign MTC.  Dallin arrived here late that night.

We got a short email from him today "Hey, I have a minute to tell you that I've safely arrived at the MTC! Everyone only speaks spanish exept for like 2 other elders but im gonna learn! I love it here and Im so excited to have adventures, learn the gospel and learn spanish! love you mom and dad, I´ll talk to you soon."
