The Gadgets and Gear that Helped Us Along

In addition to our ski gear, our electronic gear and gadgets helped make for a fun time capturing memories of the trip. We went out with as little as possible, but certain things had to be included.

Our phones. Really, a must-have. The side benefit was the navigation app we have (Navigon) that told us what routes to take. It was convenient and reliable. It even made some of the regular things fun. Take the tunnels... As we drove through them, it even changed the screen to be a tunnel :)

Our iPads. Loaded with books, music and movies, we had all the entertainment we could need. As a matter of fact, we only watched one of the four movies we brought (and I fell asleep during that one).

Our cameras. Mike shot using a Nikon AW100. This waterproof beauty also records GPS locations. Oooh, pretty maps... I shot with the much less expensive but capable Easy Share Sport 123. It is also waterproof.

All the gadgets required cords and chargers. We organized them in our gadget pocket and grid it.

Boot dryers. You can forget this baby. It keep our boots dry and our toes toasty. This was worth every bit of the $24.99 it cost. It has both a wall charger and a car charger so you are good to go.

That's it folks! I'll give you a rest from our trip. Now back to regular programming :)
