Guest guest Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Thank you all for your responses on KT and traveling.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 Thank you all for your helpful suggestions: I am feeling much more confident that this is something I can do on our trip. I will do both milk kefir and KT because I like using both. If there are more suggestions, please keep them coming. There is always more to learn. I will share how this works out after we return from our trip in October (and if some question comes up while we are traveling, I will have my computer and this group is one of the groups I will be reading.
