Exactly. It is much more refreshing to leave all IT gadgets home. That way I will not try to do any work, answer a single email or care about what the stock market is doing.

The best stuff for a holiday is subjective - for me it can be an opportunity to just play with writing software without constraints as opposed to the day job where I have specific objectives /and/ half a dozen staff to manage...
For that matter one of the things that one could do with the odd holiday from is the family (or more exactly the responsibilities that go with) and that (when the opportunity arises) is liable to involve significantly less technology...

I would take with me a computer keyboard that can type code on sand.

Why coding, always :->

Because its not always - nowadays for me quite the reverse, not nearly enough (although there are compensations). And it does depend on the holiday (we do both the lap of luxury - a cruise next - and things rather more basic e.g. cycle camping...)

I don't want to really work when I'm on holiday. But if I do bring my laptop...I tend to code something. Haha I guess its one of those bad habits.....

It's not like that..
Thinking in technical terms is the instinct some people have themselves..
it's not for the coding purporse but for self understanding of the processes going around.
It is not destructive, it's just a habit of seeing things like that..

Holiday is a sigh of relief,
a better chance to come out of an hectic environment and
after which one can have a new look at the problems
with a definite advantage.

There's something that's not in the list... Ipod. I take my Ipod EVERYWHERE. 
Don't talk to me... Talk to my interface
