I go through about 5 rolls a day when traveling, so I just bring
a small collapsible cooler and keep everything in it, along with
whatever I pick up out of the cold case for lunch. A week or two
doesn't really bother it *that* much. For that matter, my
camera case *is* a small collapsible cooler. Lunches just don't
look worth stealing.
I doubt I'd take only pro into a hot desert... I'd probably bring both
amateur and pro films there unless I could get the pro films out for
processing easily. I've done slide processing myself, but it's a pain.

I'm not a color print person... since I'm always taking photos for
teaching, I prefer slides, and let the labs make prints from the
few slides I want. Works better than prints to slides. ;-)
