So, my journey to Kenya began today at the Akron Health Department. I got the first round of immunizations - Hepatitis A (final one), Hepatitis B (first of 3), and yellow fever. The nurse told me that the yellow fever will probably burn a little bit. This warning did not fully prepare me for the searing, burning pain to follow. At least it didn't last too long. Next round of shots on June 4th in DC.
