Buy distilled bottles of water at any large supermarket.  Your baby
will stay healthy and won't have to readjust to the various waters
if you'll buy distilled water for her.  Most supermarkets carry it
for about 50 cents per gallon, anywhere in the USA.  This one precaution
will give you a much better chance of having a good time.  The baby
won't get diarrhea or an upset stomach thus won't cry all the time.

Another thing you should know is to blow warm air into the babies' ears
or nurse the baby whenever you fly or drive over mountains.  The
built up internal pressure on the babies' ears can also be relieved
when he cries.  Blowing warm air into their ears will relax the pressure
and allow the baby to acclimatize to the altitude.
