Adventure Planning: Last Minute Shopping

Our flight leaves tomorrow for Florida, then it’s on to Cancun, our jumping off point for the great Central American Honeymoon Adventure of 2007. Today was a day for last-minute shopping. So what were the things we almost forgot but couldn’t do with out? I wish somebody would ave posted this list for us a week a go, so here it is:

A combination lock for bags on long bus rides and other insecure places.

Mosquito net and Permithin spray

Spanish pocket phrasebook (because the dictionary is just too bulky)

Homeopathic treatments for common illnesses (because Cipro is almost as nasty as diarrhea)

Nylon zip-away, sun and mosquito repellent pants for half price. Sweet!

Water filter refill

Iodine and virus-killing tablets for backup

Extra tubing for water filter (it got contaminated last time)

Hydration tablets

Last but certainly not least… TRAVEL INSURANCE!
