Re: Family Disney trip, 2020 edition

An amusement park might be the only place I can think of where I probably wouldn't take camera gear with interchangeable lenses unless you don't plan on going on the rides.    Aside from limiting it to something you can fit into a fanny pack, you would have to rent a locker or leave it unattended on the ride platforms.

During my college years (which were many, many years ago) I was an area host supervisor at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.  One of my responsibilities was seeing that lost articles were sent to guest relations.  Camera equipment topped the list of things that made the trip.

Also, while crime was rare in the park, when it did happen, the most common occurrence was unattended items taken from the ride platforms.  I wouldn't want to leave my equipment there.
