Caught In An Elevator!

2/27/12

We spent the day looking for a different apartment. The first one we went to was well within our budget, but way too swank and splashy to have branch members come over. Darn it! I hate it that I saw that it actually had a clothes dryer, microwave, regular sized fridge and dishwasher! We saw two other ones that we could move into and would be nice, but not too nice. We're going to look a little more, but I'm glad that we won't be staying in our present apartment. A funny thing happened...we got stuck in an elevator for about 20 minutes today. The Landlord, a Hungarian Branch member who was along to interpret, two elder missionaries and Richard and I piled into this tiny elevator and it got stuck in between floors. When They finally got us out, we got a good scolding. I heard the Hungarian explaining that the Americans couldn't read the sign. No matter that the Hungarians were the last two in the elevator. The scolder said that we could read numbers, pointing at the sign that said only 4 people allowed. We didn't need an interpreter to understand that!
