I’ve been planning my cruise — the Microsoft sponsored "game cruise" — which means I’ve been researching things like diet cokes and internet access. It’s a good thing, because BOTH are expensive. I was going to take my laptop, but there really isn’t a point, since internet access is at .65 a minute. They have packages, but they don’t save much. I’ll probably get the smallest package and then use it only to email family. It will be weird to be so unconnected, but I’ll get over it. They have an internet cafe so I’ll use that. <\/p>\n
I also need to remember to put my phone in flight mode — it will work on the ship, but my average data load would cost about $165 a day. I’m going to see though, if I can get an international data rate for a short time, but I think the cruise rate is fixed even with an international data rate.<\/p>\n
I can blog as I go and then upload everything while I’ll at the Miami Airport. <\/p>\n
The other thing is diet cokes. With my gastric reflux, the only beverage that tastes decent to me is diet coke. Thankfully they have a soda package which costs abour $30. I doubt I spend that much on diet cokes on a normal basis, but there are some days…. <\/p>\n
