Wife's motion sickness could stop an Africa trip

I sympathize with your wife because I too have motion sickness. Airliners don't bother me but little planes and riding in little trucks with right hand drive are no fun for me. I take Dramamine at night and the non drowsy version in day if I need it. They key for her may be taking Dramamine at night for several nights before the trip. I like deep sea fishing but even the prescription patches don't help me so my adventures must be on land or at least not in the open ocean!
To each his own but I enjoy hunting alone at times. I don't mind traveling alone, it gives me time to think. Then when you get where you are going you make new friends!
Regards,
Philip
 
You might look into a Reliefband electronic motion sickness device. I've used them for about a dozen years for offshore fishing trips. I've had people out with me in 6 foot seas, have them start to get sick, have them put my reliefband on and they get better. Some women use them during pregnancy and some people use them during chemo. Might be worth a try.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
