Preston

After London we headed up north to Preston. In Preston we met up with our professor and his wife for a week. This week we took a break from our IAP internship and toured the north of England. On this trip we toured the different sites from the first two LDS mission back in 1840's. The first day of our trip we toured Preston and a few other villages around Preston that the first group of missionaries visited. We saw where they baptized the first converts, the homes they stayed in. Oh and cool fact, my grandfather was apart of the first mission. So it was extra cool.
