I am starting to get ready for the trip. It seems this is a greater task than I had anticipated. Purchasing the plane ticket just started the regurgitation of my wallets so called food.


My anti-Malaria pills seem to have some great side effects but they were the cheapest ones I could have possible purchased. I decided to spend $40 dollars instead of the $350 for the recommended pills. After many discussions with the ever so pleasant insurance lady I found out that they do not help with prevention, they only help pay for curing you once you have the bug. I am still some what young and I figure I am in the best statistical range to recover if i were to get malaria, so that way the insurance company will pay.
Yes, that is a roll of Charmin with Wet Ones just in case of the unthinkable. :( I have a quart baggie filled with my liquids because that is the maximum allowable amount by law, I like being on the edge like that. I got my shave gel, aloe, shampoo, Sun block, and Tooth paste who knows what could happen on that plane ride. If you have any suggestions as to what else I should bring please let me know. You should be able to click on the map and view the highlighted section in the top right. That is where Mr. Mike Mccullough lives. This is the first mission; to get to his place. I purchased the map so I have some idea of where I am going. You may be asking well where is the airport in relation to where he lives? I don't know I have not found the airport on the map yet. I am just taking baby steps, one step at a time should do the trick. I am sure if i need help the taxi drivers will help me out. I can only image a taxi driver going very far out of his way for a guy like me.

I will continue to post as often as possible so check back and leave me some comments.

Nick

Nick - must get Cipro to combat intestinal bacterial funk. You should have a link where we can donate towards your trip.
