A good idea no matter *WHERE* you take the film for processing :

  Make up a card with your name, address & phone number for your 
  camera bag.  Include a photograph of this as the first exposure
  on each roll of film.  You may want to add other instructions
  to whomever may get the roll by mistake like "call collect if
  delivered to wrong party".  Although I've never had a roll of
  film lost, I expect it would substantially improve the likelyhood
  of it making its way back home.

  Depending on the camera & lenses you have, you may need anything
  as large at 8x10 or as small as a business card.
