Hi Jenna, On the note of bali belly, I have seen lower in the forum you are thinking of going over with small children, just remember that most stomach upsets over there are water born so make sure you use bottled water for everything incl brushing teeth, also remember that often fruit and vegetables are washed in local water not bottled, the wife got sick on our first trip after having pasta, we guessed it must have been cooked in local water, the normal boiling time and temp will not kill bacteria. I think is easier on the kids to try to avoid than cure this bug it can really knock you around for a few days and if its the kids can tie up 3 or 4 days of a holiday.
