    Only allowed to stay for 6 days

    No, the passport only has the date that we entered the country, we got a certificate that says that our stay is valid until Jan 26th for bad weather purposes, but that's it.

    Only allowed to stay for 6 days

    We only booked 6 days because we didn't expect our money to last as long as it has, and usually it's 6 months without a visa, so we only booked 6 days to start with and then we were going to go on from there.

    Taking Portable Hard Drive Through Border/Customs?

    The only thing it will have on it is movies and that's it, won't have any personal info on it etc. Since it's only a holiday it's more to watch on the plane and in the hotel at night rather than pay for movies.
