Kindle and holidays, woo!
Aug. 30th, 2010 04:57 pmGuilty confession time: I've ordered a Kindle. In fact, I ordered it last week. Went for the basic wi-fi only model, because there is rarely a time when I am without wi-fi access of some kind and I cannot justify paying an extra $50 for the 3G connection when I will rarely need it.
( Cut for much self-justification )
Hopefully I'll have my Kindle here and ready to go before my mini-break in October, so I don't end up packing half a dozen books with me. Mum and I booked our accommodation yesterday (http://www.lunenburginn.com/): twin room with a private walk out onto a deck overlooking picturesque parts of a lovely old harbour town. I'll admit, the Bradt guide's (insert link) discussion of gourmet breakfasts might have won us over. We also get an LCD TV with DVD in our room, so we can go out exploring during the day and spend the evenings with silly movies. What space we save on books will probably be used for DVDs. It's going to be a brilliant break and I'm really going to need it!
