Arrival in Argentina

Hopefully we'll get a report on the first week sometime tomorrow, but we were happy to get the following short email last week right after he arrived in Argentina:

Dear Mom and Dad,

I have arrived safe and sound in the CCM in Argentina!!!!  I just barely received my nametag -- legit!!  Being a missionary is already so awesome.

Now we have a full day ahead of us here at the CCM.  Sweet.

There are a group of about 30 of us all traveling together!  It is pretty awesome to have such a group all together.  One of the sisters was in my FHE group at BYU, so it is nice to see a familiar face.

On the ride to Atlanta, I sat next to a very friendly talkative woman who served a mission in Pennsylvania.  It was cool to talk to her, and I was able to share a message from the scriptures with her!  The ride to Argentina though, no such luck . . . .  

Well, I am not quite sure what to say.  I am excited to be here!  Do not fear for me! :)  The temple is very beautiful.  Oh - our p day is thursday here, we must let you know.  Hear from you soon!

Thanks for all the help.

Love,
Elder Olivier
