The Pacific Leadership Seminar (part 2)

We spent four wonderful days with 17 other mission presidents and their wives, being trained by our Area Presidency. We stayed at a lovely hotel in Queenstown NZ, shared ideas, learned much and enjoyed being with our friends who we feel like we have known forever. It was like a mini Mission Leadership Seminar we had in Salt Lake at the MTC.
On the Wednesday we caught two buses and two boats to see the beautiful Doubtful Sound. We have never seen anything so beautiful and majestic in all of our lives. The second boat ride was pretty rough and one poor sister was vomiting. It was a week we will always remember and be grateful for. A few photos:

The great bus we travelled to Doubtful sound on - huge windows and the roof of the bus was partly glass.
