Waterproof Kindle Case for Your Beach Vacation


Love the beach? the pool? Love your Kindle ebook reader? Now you can safely combine your love of reading with your love of water. Just add the new Guardian waterproof case for Kindle to the mix and you have the recipe for safe pool-side, ocean-side, or even bathtub reading.

The Guardian case, just released by M-Edge, is a custom-molded polycarbonate plastic case with soft mounting pads and a water-proof O-ring seal. Turn on the reader, place it in the case and seal it with the four latches and you're good to go into the water up to a meter deep. Your Kindle will float safely and happily, level in the water in front of you, for hands-free reading. Use the flexible sealed cutouts to access the navigational controls and turn the pages. The anti-reflective shield over the screen reduces glare from the sun.

This waterproof Kindle case comes trimmed in your choice of black, red, or cobalt blue (pictured) and would make a perfect gift for any Kindle owner who enjoys reading poolside or at the beach.

SodaStream Jet Home Fountain Machine

SodaStream Jet Starter KitWith the SodaStream Jet Starter Kit, you've got everything you need to turn tap water into sparkling water in 30 seconds, saving money as well as helping you be environmentally friendly. The SodaStream Jet soda maker comes with two BPA-free plastic 1-liter bottles and one CO2 cylinder that will make up to 60 liters of sparkling water. With no batteries or electricity, you can use your soda maker in your kitchen, outdoors on your patio or deck, or on your boat or R.V.

An average family of four spends over $1,000 per year on soft drinks and soda. This home fountain machine can save 75% to 90% of that cost! A liter of sparkling water costs 21 cents to make at home, instead of $1.50 or more to purchase at the store. Make 12 ounces of flavored soda for around 25 cents!

This is great for traveling or camping, as it eliminates the need to carry bulky bottles of your favorite beverage. Instead, mix up sparkling water or flavored soda from tap water in just minutes! In addition, the CO2 cylinders can be recycled and refilled, eliminating a huge amount of waste from plastic soda bottles. Save your pocketbook and save the earth with the SodaStream Jet Soda Fountain!

Eagle Creek Swerve 32

What a wonderful surprise it would be to find the Eagle Creek Swerve 32 under your Christmas tree! The Swerve is the suitcase two members of my family took to Europe this summer on our cruise holiday. The bag was amazing and did all that it was asked to do with no difficulties.

The Swerve 32 is manufactured by Eagle Creek, a company with a solid reputation for making quality luggage pieces. It is a wheeled duffle-style suitcase that can be carried as a backpack. (Although I'd be leaving doing that to someone younger than I am.)

It features 5,800 cubic inches of space which was enough room to easily hold about a weeks worth of clothing, including formal attire, with space to spare.

It starts off light at just over 8 pounds so when you fill it up you don't have to worry about it being overweight at the airport.

It happily wheeled along wherever we asked it to go. We had no difficulties with it in the airport, on the sidewalk or even on the cobblestones in Europe. Nothing we did was too much for this bag. I preferred the slightly longer and leaner shaping of the Swerve to that of the other bags we took. The slightly more streamlined sizing made it easier to maneuver.

Available in two colors, I have to say I prefer the green over the gray simply because the green instantly JUMPS out at you in a sea of other luggage. However, I am willing to admit that I find the color somewhat stylish, too!

If you have a traveller in your family, I have no hesitation in recommending the Eagle Creek Swerve 32. What an amazing Christmas gift this piece of luggage would be!
