Joined the iPad craze

After being jealous of my husbands iPad I have gotten one of my own. I will take it to Europe to use when I have wifi to document my trip.

Preliminary Packing

I have spent most of the day gathering the final items that I need for packing. I have been struggling between carrying a small back pack or a tote. I think that I have settled on a tote. I will keep my passport, ID, and money in a travel belt under my clothes. I am also considering purchasing an I-Pad 2. I am not sure how this will effect my Kindle use but it will be great to have internet access when I have wi-fi. I also have 5 books that I want to carry. Three are travel guides by Rick Steves, but the other two are culinary guides to Italy. I want to carry them but they are so heavy, but they are also filled with so much information. (Neither are e-books)

Preparing for Europe

We leave for Europe on June 1. That gives me just a few days to pack my one bag, prepare to do lists to for my adult children, and load my Kindle with books to read.
