Treat your medication like cash! Don't put them anywhere you wouldn't leave $500. Many, many people abuse prescription drugs and will steal them. This addiction affects people in all social and economic groups. I would absolutely not put my meds in my checked bag. I do not trust the TSA employees to not steal them and I don't want to tempt anyone with an addiction. I carried all of them in my carry on bag (which was like a small pharmacy). In the hotel, I locked them in the safe, along with my camera, wallet and jewelry. In my home, I hide them in random places around the home. I don't think any of my guests would steal them; but once again, I don't want to tempt anyone who struggles with this particular addiction. My doctor also will not replace lost or stolen pills, so it is not worth the chance of that happening. I would be very careful where you keep them and where you leave them. I only carry 4 or 5 in my purse, and not in a Rx bottle. My pharmacist said that since I had a valid script that it was not a problem. If I were ever questioned on it, they could call my dr and pharmacist and verify my script. I did carry all the valid bottles when traveling, just in case. Cathy's idea of carrying a note is a great idea too.

Anybody know if the DVD players they have at the Hotel Theresientor are N. American, and play DVD's with Region 1 encoding? Or are they for playing locally rented movies?
My boyfriend and I are big movie/TV watchers, and will be bringing a lot of DVD's of movies and TV shows. We will watch them on our laptops, if needed. But it would be nicer if we could watch them on the DVD player at the hotel, on their TV's.

Boy, I don't remember. I do know we brought our own portable DVD player and watched movies on our laps. We're big movie people too, and that was alot of fun at nighttime. Hopefully, someone else will chime in with an answer.

Right. Which is why I wanted to know if the DVD players they have available to put in your room at the hotel Theresientor are N. American players, or European.
