How much technology do you need while on vacation?
Ideally, your plan should be to unplug and relax especially if a tropical beach is involved. (It was.)
Ok, you got me this story is how I brought an iPad to Cabo San Lucas thinking it would cover me in case I needed to interact online. I was lured into a false sense of security based on access to email and a few handy apps allowing me to access files back home.
As we packed for the trip, I thought to myself this time I'm not going to bring my laptop and travel light. (And we did.) Two small rollers and lightweight backpacks would free us from visiting the dreaded baggage claim in Mexico. Everything went as planned on board the plane to checking our minimalist luggage with the bellman at the resort until our room was ready until one dreaded email.
5:30 pm Day Two: Happy Hour - email reads: please fill out this documentation URGENT with a link to a website that is not too iPad friendly. Chrome and Safari were useless on this Website causing a cascading failure in my plan.
I should of brought my Dell Laptop running Windows 7. (Note to Self - Don't Forget you Laptop)
