Counting the days until our departure for our South American Adventure

Get ready Peru & Bolivia ... the Mueller girls are preparing for our trip below the equator.

This week, Stacy and I will see our doctors and get the perscription for the Maleria vaccine. Next week starts our shots for Yellow Fever, Hep A & B, and Typhoid. Already purchased our water filtration bottles, but still need to get chlorine tablets to kill anything else that may linger in the water supplies of Peru and Bolivia. Registered the trip with the State Department and am reading up on remedies for altitute sickness. Don't you wish you were coming with us too. :)

The benefit of all this preparation will be a 14 day immersion into the Peruvian and Bolivian cultures.
