H, DS and I are going to visit Sea World and it has been about 15 or so years since I went so I'm trying to think of what to take?  DS will do some of the stuff in the Lost Lagoon I think (he is about 32 inches tall +/-) and we will do some of the exhibits, etc.  What do I need to bring?  I'm trying to get organized.  So far I have swim diaper(s), towel, water shoes (?), sunblock, hat, glasses, swimsuit, and while he doesn't like the stroller, I'm bringing our small umbrella stroller to hold the stuff.  Should I pack this in a backpack?  I have some totes but I'd rather be able to wear it on my back I think?  And I have a small drink thing from DS's bottles that I can put some sippies, water bottles, etc.  The website says up to a 6 pack cooler size is allowed and this is about half that (holds 3 sippies of standard size).  What else?  And I need a good waterproof camera because I'm not risking my good digital - any ideas?  TIA

Wish I could help you, but I haven't been to Sea World in about 10 years! Sad, since I live here! But, I would definitely go with the backpack. It will keep you hands free and keep the weight balanced behind you. As far as cameras, about 2 years ago I looked into waterproof cameras and the best small one I found was an Olympus. I don't know what they're like now, but at the time it was waterproof up to 5 or 10 feet of water and you could drop it from up to 5 feet. A friend had one and we took it to Schlitterbahn and had a blast with it!

By the way I think they're pretty lenient on the cooler size.   You can probably get away with something even a tad bigger.  I say go for a backpack too and bring some snacks.
