I have had all my vaccinations - I'm good to go.

I have just finished my second and final dose of the Dukoral vaccine, which purports to protect people against cholera and Montezuma’s Revenge for two years. I am not going to be reckless when I eat while in Africa, and I am bringing a lot of my own snacks, and I will be purchasing packaged snacks while there. Not to put too fine a point on it, I don’t want to get sick while I am away. I have heard that the breakfast that is supplied by the nuns is quite meager: a penance breakfast, if you will. I am bringing dried fruit and almonds. I can have a bit of that for brekkie every day, and then go forth with a sunny disposition to greet my new Rwandan friends.
