Melanie and I and the family have been in the Bahamas at the Atlantis resort for three full days now. One of the great features of the resort is the "Rapids River" which is a tube ride that includes water slides, rapids, and a very large wave generator as well as some nice "lazy river" type parts for relaxing. This morning, I was going on this ride with Verity, my seven yo daughter. I took our brand new Sony EX-10 waterproof digital camera with me and snapped a few pics of Verity along the way. And then, somewhere, I lost it. Ug.
What's worse? Last time I was here (just with Melanie), I did EXACTLY THE SAME THING!!!! Gosh. How stupid? Well. Suffice it to say I feel terribly ashamed. I went over the stretch of the Rapids River three times, twice with goggles, looking for the darn thing. No luck. This evening I called three separate on-site lost-and-founds. No luck. Tomorrow morning I'll call the water park management. See if it has shown up. Not likely.
Last time, I was lucky. The same evening I lost the camera, it was recovered, returned to lost-and-found, and I got it back with all the pictures. This time? Only time will tell. Maybe if I really lose it this time I will really learn the lesson: don't put things unsecured in my pocket while riding a water park tube ride!!!
