I'm traveling to Costa Rica with the wife and daughters (16 & 12) and was curious if we needed any immunizations (Malaria, Hep A, etc). We'll be there in early June, in Manuel Antonio. If anyone has been there and has any information, please let us know. Also, I'm open to suggestions on things to do there, it's our first trip there. Thanks in advance!

I'm not a tinfoil hat type of guy but just in case, what vaccinations or immunizations should I, as a 30 year old american, get? Let's say I budgeted $1,000 to cover the bases; I'm not planning on taking any trips to the jungle, working with blood, doing drugs or having anal sex. What could I take care of with a budget like that?
