I would take some of those icy pole plastic tubes with gastrolyte in them so little one doesn't become dehydrated.I think that's the main worry with gastro. Get her used to drinking lots of water at home before you go so she's used to it. Also wipe her hands constantly with those antibacteria wipes. If you have a good Dr here in Australia ask their advice and see if you can get some medication to take with you in case e.g. antibiotics, etc.. Get the AB's in powder form so you can mix it with bottled water if you need it. The mixed ones need the fridge. I would laso take some nappy rash cream in case little one has a burning bottom. Hope this helps. I know its always a bit of a worry but I hope it goes well.
