Santiago Temple

The Santiago Chile Temple was the first Mormon temple to be built on Spanish-speaking soil and the second to be built in South America. The temple serves roughly 540,000 Latter-day Saints in the vicinity.
Since its initial construction, there have been additions to the temple property including housing for patrons who come from the far reaches of Chile to stay in while they attend the temple.

And, something new for me to worry about:

SANTIAGO - CHILE, among the South American countries hardest hit by the swine flu, confirmed two new deaths from the virus, bringing the country's death toll from the outbreak to seven.

ANDES MOUNTAINS

Well Aaron just informed me that it's the ANDES mountains, not the Appellations. OPPS>>> I guess since no one reads this blog thats why nobody else caught that. He leaves October 7. Did you know you don't need a VISA to get into Chile? EVERYONE's welcome.

In case you were wondering where Santiago, Chile is, here is a map. He will be in North Santiago towards the Appalachian mountains

IT HAS ARRIVED.......

Still Waiting

TOMORROW??????

Bishop called Aaron this morning and said it was MAILED yesterday (Monday). Could it get here tomorrow??????????

Aaron is not at work tomorrow. Will he respect his Mother enough to wait until I get home to open it?
