Ok so to break the trend here......yes I always take my laptop.
I appreciate that its a vacation however in my defense :
1)I am self employed
2)We normally take a vacation for 6 to 10 weeks at a time, so when that happens I need to be able to be contactable, so I normally spend 2 or 3 days a week working.
Case example.....we are going to Orlando next year for 9 weeks. We are all sorted with our Disney, Universal and Seaworld passes, but I will have to spend some time working and also potentially flying to other states for work.
The safe issue isnt a problem because we do not stay in a hotel when we go, we normally hire a house.
