[quote=Anonymous]When planning a trip, I go ahead and book at least one dinner or lunch for each day, and I make a list of restaurants by area for meals that aren't booked. Restaurant reservations can always be cancelled/changed closer to the dates. But I find that if I don't do this at the early planning stage, I forget and we get stuck with crummy options. These days, we live overseas, have a college kid in a different country and have aging parents still in DC. So, we travel a lot, but often to the same destinations. I use the Notes app on my iphone along with smart folders and tags. This makes it easy to add new ideas while on the go and quickly reference old travel notes as needed. If I'm going somewhere new where I will need to do a lot of driving, I download a Google map for the area that includes the airport and my hotel. That way, if I can't get a stable data connection, I can at least navigate reasonably well from the get-go.[/quote]
