Thats ok..I was just going to be bummed if we did because I had checked with the Dr. DD is a pain when it comes to shots and I thought it was going to be a struggle to get it done if our Doc was wrong...no problem! :)

Well they weren't bad, but being a mom myself if I didn't have to put my child through it I wouldn't. :hug:
 
Before heading off to bed, I'd like to wish my fellow dads,

on Sunday

Thanks Andy! You (and all the others) too!
 
OK first off I posted it just to say what we got not to alarm or insenuate that anyone would NEED them. So if I have panicked you I am so sorry.

I don't think you need anything, our travel nurse went to a certain website and looked it up. It was strictly precautionary and she said that we didn't have to get them since we are on a ship and the risk was very low, and since we didn't have to pay for them, so we figured better safe than sorry.
I just looked at the travel packet and the yellow fever was for Colombia, and the typhoid is in general due to the countries we are in and the fact that it is a contagious disease. Flu was just for the ship. And a according to the maps malaria isn't needed in the areas we are going to.

Sometimes the decision to get the shots depends on the individual's health too. My DH got hepatitus C from a blood transfusion years ago and needs to be very protective of his liver. That is why we all have Hep A and Hep B vaccines.

We had to pay for our hep A vaccine though:confused3

Super duper helpful!!!! Thanks Tom!!!!
 
Hey everyone thought I would do my monthly posting.
My DH and I saw the travel nurse today and wound up with 3 shots, typhoid, yellow fever, and the flu shot. The first 2 were ones recommended for the countries we are going to be in, the flu for being on the ship. She said we could take malaria pills as well, but we didn't see where it was going to be necessary on the maps she gave us. We are going to see what our DR thinks though. She said with being on a cruise ship we probably wouldn't really be at risk, but better safe than sorry.
61 more days until we leave, and I can't wait.

All our health dept. recommended was the HepA shots.
 
Typhoid and yellow Fever are recommended for the countries we are going to? :scared1: I asked our Dr. and he said that we didn't need anything....I didn't see anything from DCL..were we supposed to get certain shots?

If we HAD to get shots I wouldn't be going! LOL! Out of the 5 of us I'm pretty sure that someone would need to hold at least 3 of us down to give us that many shots! LOL!

Thanks for your hard work with providing the links! :thumbsup2 I spent some time exploring the links and looking at the pictures. In particular, the pictures from the Convento de la Popa link show Cartagena as both beautiful and scarred from poverty. I look forward to our tour.
 
That's what was holding me back from #3 as well. I wanted to emerald shop at Mr.Emerald's store, but I also wanted to see the Las Bovedas:confused3

Paula, If I wanted to send my family back to the ship after tour #3 and go by myself to Mr. Miles store to emerald shop, would I have time to do that ? Would anybody else want to share a cab and do the same ?

Thanks for your hard work with providing the links! :thumbsup2 I spent some time exploring the links and looking at the pictures. In particular, the pictures from the Convento de la Popa link show Cartagena as both beautiful and scarred from poverty. I look forward to our tour.

Tom, thanks for adding the links. That will probably help out alot in the decision making. Laurie, you should have time to do that. I think it is about a 20 minute cab ride back to the ship and we are there about 8 hours. I recommended to Rockollama (?) that she could always book direct with Mr Emerald to get the exact tour that she wanted. Here is his email leland@misteremerald.com. He is on vacation for the next 4 weeks though. Also, if you just want to play with one of the tours , you are more than welcome too. We can estimate the cost and verify when he gets back. Right now I just don't have time. I will be back the 26th--you can pm me and see what could work.

Night folks:)
 
Thats ok..I was just going to be bummed if we did because I had checked with the Dr. DD is a pain when it comes to shots and I thought it was going to be a struggle to get it done if our Doc was wrong...no problem! :)
DD14 would probably be close to hysterical if we had any shots!
 
It is fine to change. Just please go back, edit then delete your posting under the tour you don't want to do. It will make keeping track much easier. I won't have time to check on anything until after the 26th. Vacation her I come!!:goodvibes

For some reason I couldn't delete one of my messages so I just edited it and put "Deleted" :)

Thanks so much for organising these tours!
 
Typhoid and yellow Fever are recommended for the countries we are going to? :scared1: I asked our Dr. and he said that we didn't need anything....I didn't see anything from DCL..were we supposed to get certain shots?

Most coastal areas are free of malaria and other mosquito spread nasties - they don't like coastal breezes. Risk for a day excursion would be slim to nil.

My doctor also recommended flu vaccines due to being on a cruise ship and also Hep A - which they recommend for everyone anyway - regardless of if you leave your own hometown or not.
 
G'mornin' pirate:s

Busy busy busy. I ordered a formal yesterday! YAY! I got this one in cornflower. I didn't love hte color at first but DH did and talked me into it. Also bought my boy folk a few new shirts (for cruise dinner) & rashguard shirts (for sunburn!) $10 at Old Navy. Joined the Officers Club 4 miles from our house on base so we can use the pool. Cleaned, sorta packed, watched baseball. Ugh.

This morning is hockey off ice, hockey practice, stop at Target, then off for my 7 day bike trip. Yup, it's "work". This is good. I need to escape my office right now. Not sure what the wifi situation will be, but I'll try to check in. If there is something important, please PM me.

I estimated this as I don't know the entrance fee to the Palace

OK, now I think we are switching from #4 to #5. We really wanted to visit both the fortress and the inquisition place.

M, someone here gave me the heads up to check with AirTrans customer service. I'm totally blanking on the name, but I wouldn't have sent in the email if she hadn't have posted that she also bought her tickets in January and was not getting charged the fee for the 2nd bag.
So Thank You to whoever that was:yay:

Here's the response I got:

So maybe Zack is the guy to contact at AirTran:confused3


Thanks! I'll have to bang on them when I get back.
 
Thank god summer break is here !!
DS11's team won the championship. The score was 2-1 & they played 6 innings in an hour. Quickest game I was ever at.
