Hi Lynn,
an fyi for motion sickness: ginger has been shown to be more effective
at controlling nausea, including that of motion sickness, than the
leading anti-motion-sickness over-the-counter medicine.
One of the meds I take has nausea as a side effect, so I've consumed a
lot of ginger over the past few years. the best form, if you can get
there to get it, is when it's been made into a chewable toffee-like
candy, sold at Honey-Tree and other natural foods places. I think the
brand name is "The Ginger People".
Besides it being better, it has no sleepy side effects like the
medicines can have.
If you're going in a boat, I'd have something along unless you know that
you aren't subject to motion sickness. Even if it's just ginger soda
(not ordinary ginger-ail, but the kind you can buy at New Leaf or
specialty foods which is made with lots of ginger).
I'd wear shorts if I were you, old shoes you don't mind getting really
dirty, and I'd apply sunscreen every hour (I know that sounds like a
lot, but some governmental agency just came out with a report that says
the claims for water-proof sunscreens just aren't true).
hth,
Chip
