Leave it at Home (Score 1)

This is mainly personal preference, but I hate having my computer with me when I travel. I just leave it at home whenever possible. 1. Computer + hotel room (you're unlikely to be toting it around to museums and shopping) = good chance of theft (hope you have your drive encrypted) 2. Sometimes it's just good to get away from it all. 3. I've never had trouble finding an Internet cafe and grabbing a couple of minutes to check email and to let my family know I arrived safely. Bring a book (even two or three!) What better time to catch up on some great books, like SuperFreakanomics? Check out the museums in London. The best stuff stolen from all over the world! Don't miss Westminster Abbey. If you have the time, rent a car and take a trip out to Stonehenge. Enjoy your vacation and decompress!
