First (of many! ) malaria pills.


We have to take malaria tablets so we don't get really sick on our trip. If we get bitten by a mosquito that carries the disease this should stop us getting malaria.

The tablets were big and white and we had to swallow them. I sat with Flipper and Clever Bear who were going to help me.

First try.....





 

Second attempt we tried banana, third time we tried chocolate and fourth time we tried jam!

It was pretty funny really as every time we gagged into the toilet mum had to try and fish out the tablet to see if we had swallowed it. The first time we had forgotten to flush it!

  1. Nice blog and funny video.
    You might want to look in the settings and at the bottom it says `blog readers` if you put that to anyone, then everyone can get to see the blog and follow your adventures.

  2. This is a fabulous blog boys and I look forward to hearing more about your adventures.

    My son also used to live for Lego! He is 33 now but when he was 29 years old he took 6 months off work to travel overland from London to Australia. He enjoyed it a lot but I am not sure he would have been as brave as you two are when he was younger.

    Good luck on your travels and don't forget I want to hear and see all about it.

    1. Tell your son he's never too old for Lego. I hope he has kept it all to pass on. We love watching Passport Patrol about Australian border security. We're only a little bit brave and really quite scared about all the rainforest creatures and active volcanoes.

    1. We are allowed to take a REALLY small bag of lego with us. We have a 14kg weight limit each so we can't take very much at all.
