Gear list

I'm not one for clothes or other aesthetic things while travelling but I do have an obsession with technology and gear. Here is a list of things I'll be taking, I'm a master of disguise and trained ninja so please don't try to mug me for my things.

Check it out:

1. Unlocked iPhone 4- for keeping in touch with mom and pop
2. 1st Gen iPad with 3G- my favourite map replacement
3. 15" HP G62 Laptop- our lives are backed up on this beauty
4. Amazon Kindle- as an avid reader this is the most economical way of taking a library with you
5. Nikon D3100 Camera- this is actually Jess's first baby
6. Olympus Stylus Tough Underwater Camera- point and shoot for life! Plus it is indestructible.
7. Petzl LED head lamps- Hands free light for when the power goes out in your crappy hostel
8. Sleeping bag liner- nobody wants bed bugs
9. Sea-to-Summit collapsible grocery bag and backpack- perfect for hiding your fancy camera or picking up a couple bottles of wine.
10. MEC Pangea 75 travel backpack- designed for travel
11. MEC medium duffel 35L- reasonable sized bag great for shoes and such
12. Sea-to-Summit bag cover/duffel - lockable bag for the travel backpack
13. Travel towels- I have one for the beach and one for daily use
14. Light weight travel hammock- two trees and your set
15. Northface water resistant jacket- light weight and durable
16. Dakine Backpack with Laptop sleeve- my carry-on bag
17. Travel umbrella- there is nothing better than staying dry on the move
18. Timex travel watch- with time, day, date and indiglo- this watch is nice enough to wear for work but practical enough that you will be able to keep track of when you need to be somewhere
19. Prescription glasses with transition lenses- two birds-ones stone
20. Gold bond medicated powder- Trust me on this one!

This is pretty much the limit that I can comfortably carry while being able to take clothes and other secondary things. This is by no means a list of things I "need". I do not actually need anything on this list but I have found that the ability to access information, document your experiences, amuse yourself, stay dry and comfortable while travelling makes the trip that much more enjoyable.

I've probably missed a bunch of things but if anyone has additional things they would take let me know.
