How do you access the internet while on vacation

[Disney-Kim]

I have cable at home. But we are getting a laptop...so if we want to get on the internet while on vacation...do we need an ISP like AOL or something?

thanks...

We don't have a laptop, so when we're on vacation, we don't.

It's time to use one of the many AOL free CDs you probably get in the mail. We sign up and then cancel after vacation before our free time runs out.

Check with your ISP that you currently use... they might be able to give you dial up access while on vacation. MIne gives me 10 free hours a month and then $1/hour after. Otherwise I would have stacked up on AOL (and the like) CDs

I bought a notebook a few years ago to check e-mail on a week-long trip. How many times did I check it? Maybe once. I was either too tired or going somewhere to sit down and check e-mail. So my policy on vacations is to take a vacation from the Internet too!

Go cold turkey; until I get back

I have sent a quick e-mail to freinds and family at Epcot just to say "hi". Do not check any e-mails or web surfing.

When we are on vacation, its a vacation from everything. No cell phones, no pagers, no emails. Nothing but us and the mouse. I know that if you have a laptop you can hook up at most hotels. But why would you.

Enjoy it all.

Life is a journey not a destination. Enjoy the trip.

We're on vacation, we don't need no stinkin' Internet!

I don't have a laptop, but if I did, I have an ISP that is nationwide, I'd just have to find a local dial up number in the area where I'd be. I've heard a lot of people use the freebie AOL cd's.

The only way I can do any part of the internet is sending an email from my cellphone. I wish I had a laptop, too, though.

I don't have a laptop, but we were recently gone for 3 1/2 weeks and used e-mailing to check in with relatives in case of emergency etc. We just stopped at a local library about once a week. It was great help in working out a situation with our dog and helped us worry less. It would certainly be nice to have a laptop, but this worked okay for us.

There were times on our trip when a laptop would've come in very handy - researching the next town, making reservations etc.

I leave my laptop at home and enjoy my vacation!!!!!!
