Some random thoughts on travel since we hit the road:
Packing Remorse:
• Why did I bring 8 bottles of wine but no corkscrew?
• I need to ditch at least half the makeup I’m carrying… who was I kidding when I packed all that stuff?
Packing Genius:
• As previously mentioned, 8 bottles of wine!
• The German brought a HDMI cable and a connector for the iPad so I can still watch Game of Thrones on a big screen. ❤
I seriously think Trip Advisor needs to add a way that you can sort hotels by wifi speed. I would take a crappy hotel with good wifi over a good hotel with crappy wifi.
Why are most ice buckets half the size of a bottle of wine? I’d like to chill the entire bottle, not just the bottom half.
I’m way more dependant on a data connection than I realized. While I’m fine going all day without checking email or reading Facebook, I’ve hit long stretches of dead zones on the drive and I have no map in the car and no general idea of where I’m going. It made me realize that I’m relying too much on my phone and not enough on my brain. I’ll have to work on this.
Since we started traveling, I have left my credit card at 2 different restauants. Thankfully, I was able to recover it both times, but this is totally out of character for me. As in, the only 2 times I have ever done this in my life. What is wrong with me?

What’s wrong with you?
a) Eight bottles of wine 😛
b) Your brain is on vacation as well.
Glad you’re having fun!

I never use ice buckets in hotel rooms because once I threw up in one, and it made me question how often they get washed. Now I won’t touch them.

And now I will never use the ice bucket again. 😉

Why are you not using Apple Pay, or is it not active in as many places as in the UK (which is pretty much everywhere)?

We use it as much as possible but many restaurants aren’t set up to accept it yet.
