This is quick picture taken during our walk this morning. It is getting a bit cold, but it has not been too bad yet. Weather is much like our cold at home.
I guess we should show you all where we live while at the temple. As you can see, we are not far from the temple. This picture was taken from our living room window. What a view! The apartment complex is built so that 7 missionary couples can live here at the same time and also a number of rooms with multiple bunks are available for members throughout Russia, Latvia, Finland, Estonia and Lithuania can stay while attending the temple. Also many of the Finnish temple workers stay here while on their short term assignments. Many come for a week at a time to work in the temple and then go home for a while. They come from all over Finland and stay for as long as they can. There are not enough missionaries to do all the work. Usually we try to keep things in order and provide some continuity to the process.
This shows the entire building pretty much. Our room is the one right in the middle corner above the awning. The entrance is just below the same awning. The window on the left, straight above the awning is our bedroom window and the one above the awning just to the left is our living room window from which the first picture was taken.

There is a big dinning room on the main floor for all the folks staying over. A meeting room and the front desk, where we have to assist in the evening to check people in. It is one of those "other duties as assgned."
We are doing very well. Our love to you at home.
