I'm taking a European cruise this year. All the travel plans are made, tickets bought. But I'm outdated regarding phones and gadgets and chargers for the trip and I could use some help. I believe the cruise ship, which I'll be on overnights, will have standard outlets for nightly charging of phones and cameras, etc. But I'll have a couple extra nights in Barcelona and Athens where I need to be able to charge things. And during the day, I'll be using an 18-month old iPhone for my camera; and my wife will have her Sony NEX 6, which has a 3 hr battery life on a good day. So I want a portable recharger battery to carry out and about. And finally, tips on making calls, texts, and data usage abroad? I'm on AT&T with a normal US plan for a pair of iPhones.
* Electrical converters / adapters for Spain and Greece? I've got an outlet adapter from 20 years ago, but it isn't a transformer.
* Battery charger for the flights and day trips. I'm thinking of buying this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00AANQLRI/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=UWXABWV8IJ76&coliid=I3FUFJSFO39DUZ&psc=1
* Data plan or other phone tips?
* Spending money: call my credit card company ahead of time? I don't need American Express bills in 2015, do I?
Thanks
