Cameras Are Not Water Proof

Okay, most cameras are not water proof. Yep, I brought my daughter's camera into the water park, against her wishes, so I could take some pictures of the fun rides there. I didn't want to bring mine in because it's larger than hers. I guaranteed her it would be fine - NOT. 
I kept the camera in a plastic bag...
Inside a "water proof" container...
but somehow it still got wet and now her camera doesn't work.
 
Luckily the memory chip still works, so I was able to get the pictures off.
We love the water park on Oahu. It's so warm here, that when you get splashed - it feels great and the water on the rides is not cold.  We buy a season pass and go the water park a couple times each visit. It's a must do activity if you go to Oahu...just don't bring your camera!

  2. Wow! I could never go down those slides...that looks way too scary! But I love those clear inner tubes...very COOL! It doesn't detract from the blueness of the water.

  4. If I saw that big red water slide, I wouldn't go on it either Fran. Glad you salvaged the chip and share your photos - looks like a blast.
