Travel shots

While we are waiting, which we seem to be doing alot of these days, we (I) decided we needed to get our immunizations for our upcoming trip to Ethiopia. We had to get shots for meningitis, yellow fever, typhoid, polio, and we got a prescription for anti-malarial drugs. Steve wasn't crazy about going but I told him that nothing would be as much fun as spending time in an Ethiopian hospital. He came around.

The CDC lists an unbelievable number of possible diseases that travelers can contract.

Let's hope not us!
