The excitement levels have been high during the intial planning, but going to get vaccinated kicked things into another gear.  Every little step forward serves only, it seems, to make me check the countdown, so eager to get to the 1st of October!  But the preparation is everything, no successful project ever had holes in the planning stage [uh, pardon the pun :) ] 262 days.......

Four lots of perforations later, scintilating conversation with a nurse who thought we were very brave [she chose her words carefully to be sure] and feeling very proud of our two yellow books sporting the proof that we are prepared for anything that may blow, wash, rub or sneeze our way!  Yes the first lot of vaccinations are done!  Luckily I can escape the Hepatitis one [sorry Jérémie :) ] immune already, rabies will be closer to the time [to be sure, to be sure].
