Question Medical concern... Information??

Hey! So, as our trip is approaching, (Eek! We leave in 6 days!) I came to a realization ...

I take Aloe Vera Juice everyday. It is liquid form and I dont think i could pack it in my suitcase because it is a liquid. Of course, I wont die without it but it will set me back stomach wise and that would be a bummer.

Would anyone happen to know if Aloe Vera Juice has ever been seen in Aruba?

Any help would greatly appreciated!

Don't know if they have it, but if it is important, why not wrap carefully in bubblewrap and just put it in your luggage?

I always get confused. So, as long it is not opened I can bring a liquid?

Not sure if it is sold there. What about taking a piece of the plant and blending it with juice.
A friend did this for me when I had a sore throught and worked. Just tasted a bit bitter.

Hi All,
Hey don't forget the Aloe Man. He strolls up and down the beach. "Cures Everything". Better than the "blue pill". LOL

Liquid is allowed in your packed luggage..... not your carry-on. Just make sure when you pack a liquid you wrap it up well. I usually put a couple of plastic bags around it, in the case it opens up, my clothes wont get ruined.

Thank you everyone! I actually just ordered the juice in a plastic bottle, so i will super-wrap it and hope for the best! I just looked at my ticker -- I cannot believe it is only 6 days away! I am so excited for my first trip to Aruba!

Aloe Vera juice

Aloe Vera juice is readily available on the Island. I'm assuming that it is the same as you require but it comes in all different flavours and is available in any of the grocery stores. Many of the cocktail recipies on the Island call for Aloe Vera juice. I guess that's why I know about it.
