By the way, the Flip video recorder is a great travel gadget. If you haven't seen one, I recommend that you go to your closest electronics store and scope it out. I just got one about 1 month ago and love it. We never carried around our larger camcorder because of the size and amount of time it took to get ready to get a shot. Forget about catching those candid moments on film, our son was way too quick and we only got frustrated. Now that we have the Flip, we have taken video of our 2 year old.

The Flip camera is easy to use and depending on the model can hold several hours of video before needing to be uploaded. The camera contains its own USB connector. No need to worry about finding the right cord. The camera comes loaded with software to load on your laptop, no CDs to worry about. The controls are very simple. You won't be overwhelmed by features which can be a plus and a minus.

Well, what are you waiting for get over there and share your travel story. If you share one please leave a link for it here as well.
