Tech to Pack for #GuardiansOfTheGalaxyEvent


Photo-A-Day #3383

On Wednesday I’m heading off to California for a press tour with Disney and I’ll be doing all sorts of fun things. The whole trip is jam packed with activity and I’m pretty sure that I won’t have time to do much blogging so I am debating taking my laptop on the trip. I’m debating that because it is heavy and will take up space plus I can do tons of things right through my tablet. I may just take that alone.

I’m sure that I am taking too many cameras and lenses. I decided only to take three out of the four cameras that I have and each of the three cameras will have their own special reasons for being in the bag. The NX30 will take all of the most important photos and creative shots. The NXMini will be for selfies with other bloggers and celebs. I’m still debating the Galaxy Camera 2. It can do everything that my tablet can do and post directly to various social media sites as long as I have an internet connection.

Probably the most important things to bring would be power related items. I bought a Jackery Giant+ which should give my iPhone 500-600% more power. I can also help the other bloggers with their power needs because the JAckeryGiant can power more than one device at a time.

And last of all is the latest Entertainment weekly that I need to read.

Family Adventure Day at Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary


Photo-A-Day #3373

We took the kids to the Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary today to hike and check out the area. It is part of our adventure Wednesdays where we are trying to do something fun once a week all Summer. We joined the Audubon Society for this very reason, to get out and explore places.

The Wellfleet Audubon Sanctuary was a very nice place to visit. There are tons of wide trails that go from the visitor center right out to the ocean. The trail that we chose was one where we were able to walk along a great boardwalk and there were Fiddler Crabs all over the place. They were so much fun for the kids. They were delighted to see all the crabs. The walk was pretty nice, too.

We also had the opportunity to visit with my grandparents. We went over to their house and caught a little bit of a nap before they got home. Then when they came home I helped fix some computer issues. Andrew had fun doing blocks with Grandpa and Grandpa was delighted to play with Andrew and he even got down on the floor to play with him.

We then went to Chatham Fish Pier to meet up with Aunt Cindy and Uncle Wayne. We watched the seals in the harbor and then had a great meal of a Fisherman’s Platter. It was a nice day on the Cape.
