Immunizations!!

I got my immunizations today at the Health Department! I got two shots - a tetnus booster and Hep A. I also got my oral typhoid vaccine which is a total of four pills one every other day until finished. I even got a bracelet to help remind me to take my typhoid vaccine! The woman at the health department was very helpful and she gave me a lot of Travel Health Tips. Apparently the malaria vaccine I have to take has a side effect of sun sensitivity - I naturally have that problem so I will have to be extra careful not to come home roasted!

South Africa Videos

I have been spending some time looking on You Tube for information about Cape Town culture and living. I have found some interesting music videos, language lessons and more. Here are some of the best videos I have found:

Fundraising Update!

Less than 3 months and I will be on my way to South Africa!! My fundraising is going very well. I received a much needed boost from the St. Wendel Knights of St. John and the St. Ann's Ladies Auxiliary. Thank You!! My goal is to raise $1300 more by April 17th. Then I can focus on my other preparations. I feel like it will be here before I know it.
