| Here are a few things that I thought were great when I was there. Take a nice warm sleeping bag and maybe have a sheet sewn at the sides (to make a tube) to line it with. The sheets are easier to wash than the sleeping bag. I had a companion that had a sandwich maker (similar to a waffle iron, but cooks sandwiches) and that was very nice. Maple extract to make maple syrup, and packages of Kool-Aid are also nice things. Good luck! |

| I am not sure about ASP film, but I do know they develop regular old 35mm film. I would bring a sleeping bag with you. One that has a rating of at least 0 degrees. It can get pretty cold down there, especially if you have to sleep with the heater off and a window open. |

| As far as very new camera systems go, you might want to be careful. I had one companion who could not develop his Kodak Advantix film while down there. Ordinary film can be developed just fine (although it is rather expensive, unless you do it in Wal Mart :) |

| Congrats on your mission call. It is an awesome mission. I served there 1998-2000. Here is an answer to some of your ?'s. It is pretty cold down there if you are in the sothern parts of the mission. The mission is from Nequen all the way down to Tierra del Fuego which is a little island off of the sothern tip of Argentina. I served there and it is really cold. Other parts of the mission have pretty normal weather. I'd say definately pack warm. As far as the camera goes, I am not sure what type of camera that is but, I think it would be okay. Argentina is pretty modern. It is not as remote and isolated as you think it will be. I was suprised at how modern it was. You might want to ask some other people just to make sure though. Good luck!

| Hi! I am headed to the MTC on Sept 26th, and to Neuquen from there. I have some questions about what the weather is like down there. Also, I want to know how far south my mission boundaries are. One last question: Is it OK to take APS cameras down there? Can they develop the film down there? Well, I'd really appreciate a reply from anybody who has been there before. Thanks- |

| Hi! I report out in the end of Sept. and I'd like to chat with another girl whose served in the mission to know what to expect from a females view. I'm very excited to go and just want to be as prepared as possible! I'm the first in my family to serve a mission and so we are all kind of lost as to what is really important!!! Please help! Anyones' comments are welcome though!!!! :) |

| I so enjoyed reading LA VISION. My son will be going to Argentina in two weeks and this will be a good way to keep current on what is happening in his mission. An elder who recently returned from the mission was excited to read all about what had happened there since he left. I hope you will update it each month. |

| My son just entered the MTC. Would love to hear from anyone with experiences in the Neuquen Argentina Mission. Thanks. |

| Our son just arrived in Neuquen this week from the MTC. We've heard it is possible to send email to the missionaries which then gets delivered to them. Someone gave us what they thought was the mission email address but we've had no reply. Does anyone know the correct mission email address? |
