This day actually began last week when Guy checked with our local clinic and learned they no longer give immunizations.  We used to just walk out with our yellow shot records and get whatever we needed.  Well, times change as they say.

So today we took a 15 min. taxi ride to the Baptist clinic.  Paid our consultation fee.  Waited the better part of forever in this little crowded area.  Lots of fussy babies.  Finally it was our turn.  Doctor said he didn't think they had what we needed.  Sent us to pediatrics.  Nurse there said they could give us only one of the three we needed.  But we would have to buy a case of ten injections and only use the two we needed.  Since we had to find another place anyway, decided to wait and hope they could sell us exactly what we need.

Now we are waiting for another free moment so we can try day three of our immunization adventure.  Have we mentioned before that life is never easy here in Cameroon?
