Prepping the Technology

We are not going to bring a laptop to Europe. We are going to bring our iPad and this great wireless keyboard that is made of rubber and can roll up! I am actually typing on this setup now, testing it out :)

And of course, part of the technology prep has been setting up a blog for our adventure and testing out blogging via the ipad setup... which is what I'm also doing right now.. And part of getting that to work was finding a way to transfer pictures from our iphones to our ipad (which thankfully there is cable for now).

The other technology prep has been figuring out how we will get phone service and internet access during the adventure. This is mostly figured out now, though the speed of our internet service will vary.. I am jailbreaking/unlocking our iphones, so that we can purchase pay-as-you-go 'sim' cards in Europe, with mobile internet access, which is MUCH cheaper than 'roaming' charges with AT&T. We also will have internet access at some of our hotels - hopefully with good access speed for uploading pictures and videos of our travels!
