Also, yes, a knife and a multi-knife/tool are great adds. @candice: I remember! Even in Houston (after Katrina) the ATMs were unpredictable. I used credit cards to buy things mostly, assuming I'd have access to my bank acct <i>eventually</i> and just pay them off. @NOLA Freelance Photographer: I hear ya on the lenses.

Up by my parents' house there wasn't available cash for days, and no one had phone lines to run credit card machines on, either, so you really needed it.

I'd say leave the eReader for an extra lens or two (or of course more ammo...ha). Could throw in a bottle of good scotch, couple packs of smokes (or Nicorette in my case), and a good knife/matches...
