In six months we'll already be back

It just  dawned on me that the end of this trip is less than half a year away. The beginning of the trip is clear on the horizon, and the trip’s end is only just beyond it.

Nick and I were chatting about vaccines this morning. The CDC has a nice website to look up recommended vaccines for travelers. Looks like we’ve already missed the boat for the full dose of the Hepatitis A vaccine, which is recommended along with the Typhoid vaccine. For Hep A, apparently you’re supposed to get the second treatment 6 months after the first. heh…we’ll be home by then. Still going to look into it and see if the first treatment will suffice for our purposes. Typhoid is a bit easier, with two options for treatment (injection or oral), both of which should be taken a couple weeks before traveling.

 Other than the traveler’s vaccines, I should also probably locate some records of my other vaccinations to see what I may ought to come up to date on. Thinking about medical things, insurance also comes to mind and seeing if it will be anything but completely useless outside of the US. Other useful notes on adventure travel.
