    lol yes it is safe .... they will make u take off ur jewelry prior to surgery tho.... just put it in ur purse or somplace safe in ur bag... they will not go thru them... just don't do what I did and put it in a glove and forget it is in there... I accidently threw away my diamond necklace.... unfortunately, by the time I realized it, i was back at the hotel, it was too late and trash had already been taken out from the hospital room i had been in...

    You really won't be anywhere but the hospital or hotel and those are safe. Even if you decide to go shopping you should be fine since you will be with your group.
