[Previous entry: "TRYING to get Visas 2"] [Next entry: "July 23 - London, England"]

07/05/2005: "Yay! We got our Visas! And other stuff!"

FINALLY! I was still very worried until the passports arrived at our house this Saturday! I jumped up and down for a minute or two! Now onto other preparations....

Here is what we've gotten for the trip:

Immunizations...fun stuff
  • Yellow Fever (M & K)
  • Typhoid (M & K)
  • Hepatitis A (M & K)
  • Hepatitis B (M)
  • Meningitis (M)
  • Tetanus (M & K)
  • We also both got anti-malarial tablets (I'll be taking Malarone, Mike's got Doxycycline), Cipro, tons of Immodium, and clean syringes (hopefully we won't be needing these!).

    Camera Equipment
  • Canon EOS 6.3MP Digital Rebel with 18-55mm lens
  • Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 III Telephoto Zoom Lens
  • 512 MB CompactFlash card
  • Bean Bag
  • Cleaning Cloth
  • Cleaning Pen/Brush
  • 2 UV Filters
  • Lowepro Nova 2 AW Camera Bag (Gray)
  • Extra Battery
  • Extra Battery for our Canon S400 Elph
  • Bushnell Powerview 7-15x25 Zoom Binoculars (2 pairs)

    Clothing
    We each got some funky looking safari pants (zip off legs). Mine are that BugOff mosquito repellant fabric. Mike got some Permethrin spray for his. We both got some brown walking shoes, and Mike got a spiffy khaki button up shirt.

    Visas
  • Tanzania
  • Uganda
  • Still need to get Kenya's....we're going to get that one in the airport when we get to Nairobi...hopefully it will be fine that way
