portable dvd playerI am planning a trip to the beach with my husband later this month.  It is a little over two hours to drive to the beach we're heading to.  That can be a long drive, so I'm going to bring the portable DVD player for the ride.  I can watch a movie while he drives and the time will go by a lot faster.  Then at the hotel, if we want something to do in the evenings after a day at the beach, we can watch movies on the portable DVD player in our room.  We usually go out for dinner and then back to the hotel room to change.  We might go to the pool after that and then rest in the room until bed time.  Having our portable DVD player would be nice so we can watch movies while we are resting before bed.  Even with HBO that comes in most rooms, it can be hard to find something good to watch on TV.  Then of course, I can watch it on the way home from the beach as well.
