Vaccines

I started the painful process of vaccination....ouch !!!!!!

Yesterday I visited the Travel Clinic  ( www.bowmonttravel.ca/  ) they started with :

  1. Hepatitis B #1 (there is three)
  2. Rabies #1 (there is three)
  3.  Hepatitis A #1 (there is three)
  4. Typhoid
  5. Tetanus
  6. Diphtheria 

   There will be more coming ............yellow fever and Traveller diarrhea plus the balance of the rabies and hepatitis.... cost $500. It's very important to have all certificates with you, especially yellow fever as you'll be asked about this when coming back to Canada.

No secondary effects (so far), only sore arms from the needles and sore wallet for the bills........

 The best advice for an obsessive rider 

 

 ".....Do not use any maps.......do not plan.......the only important thing is to travel light, then, just ride, ride down south, Argentina is at the end of the continent, there is no way you'll miss it....."
