Chicken pox

My dds nursery had an outbreak at nursery about 3 -4 weeks ago and we are due to fly Friday and I’m extremely anxious what is the typical incubation for chicken pox? She did present with a couple spots when there was an outbreak but unsure if it was chickenpox I’ve attached photos of the spots she developed 4 weeks ago

I can’t see the photos. The incubation period is typically 10-14 days but can be up to 3 weeks I think.

Incubation period is 10-21 days. Depends when she was last in contact with a contagious person
