Vaccinations!

After some talk with my sister, I figured it might be useful to give people an idea about vaccinations, just in case they'd forgotten.

For those interested, a bit of Googling indicates that recommended vaccinations for Croatia are:

* Hepatitis A & B
* Measles, mumps, rubella (MMR)
* Tetanus-diphtheria

* Typhoid (if you plan on consuming food in randomish places)
* Rabies (if you plan on spending a lot of time outdoors)

Most people generally have vaccinations for MMR and Tetanus-Diptheria as children, so they're likely not a requirement. Hep A/B vaccinations are pretty standard if you're going outside of common western countries (eg: they're even recommended if you're going to Spain or Russia but not for UK or Italy).

For those in Vancouver, there's a pretty decent travel clinic at Broadway and Ash where we got all vaccinated up before we went to Taiwan. For a fee, they'll have a chat with you and give you some recommendations on what you'd want and then they'll do it up. In general, for vaccinations, you can probably get away with leaving them until 4-6 weeks before you travel.

UPDATE: I stand corrected on the tetanus part - tetanus apparently has to be re-done approximately once every 10 years.
