| It
is vitally important to take along a signed doctors letter for
every item of medication you are carrying - don't give officials
reasons to accuse you of being a drug trafficker or dealer. |
Get
your vaccinations done in good time.
If you're having vaccinations against Hepatitis, it is a
six month process (after the first jab, there is a booster after
28 days and another five months after that). Contact your
local Travel Clinic for advice.
We used the NetCare Travel Clinic at the Linksfield Clinic;
Marlene was so good that we barely felt the needles go in! |
