[QUOTE="confuzzled, post: 434750, member: 8831"] Great advice from above..... since i just got back from the beach yesterday, i just want to point out something weird we encountered.... the hotel tv's didnt have the digital adaptors to get the "kid channels". a small thing, but honestly, until my dd12's bff got there, it was a VERY long 24 hours without something for her to watch---not to mention, evidently it was a "sponge bob premiere" weekend :|. mine managed, but she's very used to watching tv--it was literal culture shock for her. even though (especially?) we were on vacation, mine *needs* that downtime of vegging out with tv, Know what I mean?? sounds dumb, but if yours has a routine, it might be worth calling the hotel to make sure they have the full menu of channels. (APPARENTLY, according to our hotel staff, there was some kind of adapter shortage--but i think they were just too cheap...and worse yet? i have one sitting in the box that i could have easily thrown in my luggage....who knew?). if not, then i completely second the portable dvd with a full array of dvds. (i just felt the need to tell you, since [I]not in a million years[/I] could i have anticipated *this*....we stayed in a boutique hotel with flat screens in every room....even i was a bit sick of not having tv to unwind with!!)
