Marsha and I got our immunizations yesterday. While nothing is required we got boosters for Hepatitis A/B and Typhoid. Also got script for Cipro (in case of tourista revenge).
Our shopping for the trip is divided into two lists: Mel's toys and stuff for us.
Mel's toys:
Nikon D80 camera - high resolution digital SLR camera with 10 gig of memory chips
Dell Inspiron 1501 laptop - with a high end graphics card and 2 gig. To handle toy #1
Stuff for us:
Hard salamis - our emergency food on all international trips
Splendor - sugar substitute
pancake mix
hot cereals - gruel is not our choice for breakfast
allergy meds and vitamins
duffel bags
hand cleaners - for use on the road
Marsha choose a textbook for her class. An older version of a textbook used in the States. Hopefully the relatively low cost will keep them from photocopying it. We will not encourage copyright violations.
We also checked with our Weight Watchers groups for ideas on not gaining weight in China. My favorite answer is, "Eat like a gourmet not like a glutton." Try the great variety of new tastes, but make believe the portions are from an expensive restaurant (small).
