I know I'm not an addict but being away from the computer for a week has been really hard going. The only access here in the hotel is still the computer in the lobby. This periodically loses the internet! Far too frequently for Alan's liking and usually when he is connected...
I keep wanting to go and look up some information about things to see and places to visit and lessons for the kids and support material for their learning and... and I can't. Even just catching up with the news from home on Stuff or my email or playing a game or... Okay I'm an addict. I NEED the internet!
The hotel has just changed from cabled internet to wireless in the lobby and started to charge; 4 euros an hour or 8 euros for a 24 hour period. Horribly expensive and rarely operational. We are back to a solid connection to get anything at all and we still have to pay.
We investigated getting a card for the laptops that would allow us access to the internet in our rooms (via vodafone) at 19euro a month. The only catch is that you have to sign on for 24 months. Definitely out of the price range that!
The other option is access via our mobile phones. I think I can post to the blog from my phone so will try to set that up now and then attempt to post later today.
