Passports?

[Marilyn]

Sheryl is correct about the timing. It takes at least 6 to 8 weeks unless you pay extra to get them to rush it. Now that they are requiring passports to go to Mexico and Canada, the passport offices are supposed to be overwhelmed. Best to get it way ahead of time.

While in Mexico, you may want to consider visiting the pharmacy. You can get antibiotics and Retina really cheap. 100 capsules of Amoxicillin costs about $8.00. We always stock up when we go there. Retin-A is about $12.00 a tube.

Hope you have a wonderful trip. Our daughter, Melissa, is going to the Katrina ravaged part of Mississippi over spring break on a mission trip. They leave tomorrow morning.

Thanks for the pharmacy tip. I'll definitely have to look into that.

Wow! I hope your daughter has a wonderful experience in Mississippi. That will be tough.
