We went to the travel doctor today... which was an experience. We were expected someone with knowledge of the world, who would think our trip sounded exciting and then jab us in the arm a dozen times. Instead we saw a deaf, blind and rude doctor who couldn't fathom why we were leaving Australia. He had a magnifying glass which he used to read the computer screen to find out where we would need malaria tablets. He spent an hour looking up malarial areas, despite the fact that we said that we weren't going to be getting those yet. He was then incapable of answering any questions!! We left frustrated and will have to rely on our GP to answer travel questions as I'm not paying to see a specialist again after todays experience.
After this we were in need of cheering up, so went shopping for trip items! I realised I could happily spend half our budget on travel books and special travel clothes and gadgets.
