This packing info is really helpful as I plan our trip. Thanks again for another great series of posts! did you bring a laptop? I don’t see on list, just curious.
Yes, we did bring a laptop. We actually went through 2 =\ it is Eric’s laptop so you’ll actually find it on his list here: https://globegazers.wordpress.com/2015/01/24/packing-update-eric/ it is small, kind of netbook sized. Della carries a tablet, though obviously real typing like blogging is easier on the laptop! Let us know if you have any other questions! Good luck on your trip!
