We made a visit to our local Travel Clinic today to get hooked up with all our meds and immunizations. We both got Hep A, Typhoid, and will be going in next week to get Yellow Fever. I also got Tetanus and a Pneumonia vaccine. Ike started his Hep B series. The doc prescribed 6 months of malaria meds, Cipro for traveler's diarrhea, and meds for altitude sickness. Thanks doc!
She also recommended a rabies vaccine, but is pretty expensive and only buys you an extra day to get medical treatment if bitten. We are considering this and asking other travelers for their advice.
