Trips, Books and Medical!

TRIPS
The possible trips for all the countries through SAS have been posted for awhile now. I have gone through all of them and made a list of the SAS trips I want to do. That list ended up being around $2,100! So I paired it waaaaayyyyy down. I'm pretty happy with what I have decided to commit to now and wait on till I am on board (IN 2 WEEKS!!!!)

My parents are absolutely amazing and have offered to purchase an amazing trip for me in South Africa. During my time in South Africa I will be going on the 3 countries in 1 trip. I will go to Zambia, Zimbabwe and Botswana. While in Zambia Ill be going to VICTORIA FALLS!!! Holy crap dream trip! Ill also get to go on a safari trip around the Chobe River and then Finally dinner in a BOMA.

 
The fence is to keep out lions ; )

BOOKS
I have purchased all of my books for the trip. You can have your books delivered to the ship. It's still kind of pricey but you don't have to worry about having the weight in your luggage. The UVa book store is just as expensive and ridiculous as other book stores. So if you can find a better way do it. I didn't get ALL of my books from UVa. I got 2 books from Chegg. One book is an e-book and the other I bought for $4.

Yeah $4!

I think Ill deal with the weight in my luggage just fine =)


Lastly Medical

It's sort of all done. According to the CDC there are more shots that I need to get but I DUN WANNA!



2 more weeks till embarkation I can't believe it...are you ready =)
