My flight for Bogota leaves on the 20th, so I have a few more days in town to get my things together and allocate gifts for students I will be working with in the lab. My plane will be transferring at Panama City and, based on what I can find on the internet, Aeropuerto Internacional de Tocumen is a pretty easy place to change gates.
Apparently, I am also going to need a Yellow Fever vaccine. Anybody know a good place to get those? In the meantime, I’ll look for a travel clinic in Chicago. The good news is that I am up to date on all of the other recommended vaccines, and I don’t have to worry about those. Sunscreen and bug repellent are still at the top of my packing list, however.
Tomorrow I’m going to try to finish all of the vital experiments in the Ottino lab before I leave for the summer so that I can analyze the data and write while I’m abroad.
