water camera fun
The thing about the water camera is I never know what I’m going to get.
It’s a surprise when the images are downloaded.
It was an odd day, raining and sunny all at once.
A very good day to use the water camera.
Its hard not being able to control things, but sometimes I enjoy the blurry images.
LIFE IS GOOD.
I’m still trying to get everything ready for my trip.
When you go on a road trip, what is one thing you always take with you?

I always try to take the trifecta: Ipod, cell, and camera!
Where is that?
nice pics!
good music is a must to survive a road trip!
…Bar all the standard items, I can’t say I take anything particularly special. My Dad though always used to try and get a novel to read that was set in the area/country we were travelling too.
@adifferentkindofbeautiful - Its East Bay… in Traverse City Michigan.
I always take a backpack of paper/pen (must haves at all times), books, snacks, sunblock – those kinds of things.
Looks like you’re having a nice start to the summer!

I always bring a camera. Although I am quite fond of disposible cameras I feel it’s like a gift when you get the pictures back. You never know what you’re going to get.
Although I’ll admit one thing I must bring is a stuffed animal. >.>; I can’t help it. It’s like having a friend with you to enjoy the trip.
Road trip?? Good music! Love the pics….
LOVE the feather on water images!
There really is no “always” when I travel. I’d like to bring my pillow, although it rarely happens, but I do usually bring along a book to read, and a pen so I can write in the margins. . .S
I like to take my camera and at least two books. you never know when you’re going to get stuck somewhere and need a good read to kill the time. or even a bad read
I love the feather pictures…and at the moment I would kill to see rain or water. we’re back in the upper 90′s and not a drop of rain in sight!
Great pictures Angi!!!
I have a few things that are musts for trips, first clean underwear- My Mama would be proud! next is my camera, my MP3 player and charger and a good book or two. When I am going to visit and stay with someone who I have not visited before I try to take a small token gift from my home town or state!
I know you will have a wonderful time together, I am so envious and will be taking a trip to visit xanga friends soon I hope!!!
Such great photos, Angi!!! I’m really liking the blurry ones–they look very groovy, kind of like they’re underwater.
When I go on a road trip, I always take anti-anxiety medication. It’s a must have in my world.
Love the rain drops!
I always take wet ones,my camera,CD’s ,cell phone ,glasses, 2 books and fart spray! (I have books and fart spray here ….don’t overpack!)
music… doritos, and vitamin water!!! (which has changed from mountain dew when I was much younger!)
love the pictures… maybe that’s where we’ll go w/ my extra time… the beach!!!
what kind of water camera do you have ang? and how do you like it?
Hmm… I recall this question being asked before, but I don’t remember answering it. I’d say music is essential (i.e. CDs of certain types of music, not just the radio).
@seedsower - Fart spray???
@WinsomeONE - LYSOL to Go…fart cover up.For use in public restrooms when I need to …well fart.
@seedsower - I heard that women don’t fart, they fluff. (Just like they don’t sweat, they glow.)
@WinsomeONE - According to that I am a man!
Great pictures, Ang!…
If I want to take a really good road trip… I take my motorcycle!
dan
great photos!
i always take a camera.
I never get to go on trips. Love the pics
Awesome pics….can I be a little corny here – the one thing I always take with me…my toothbrush!!!!! LOL!
Love ya Angi, hope you had a good weekend! (((HUGS)))
I love the raindrops on the water! When I “grow up” (where my camera is concerned!) I wanna be like you and Seedsower!
On a road trip you have to have good music and snacks. Also, things to occupy the kids so there is a minimum of whining.
A huge suitcase filled with everything I could possibly need.
“Knock, knock!”
“Who’s there?”
“Doors.”
“Doors who?”
“Doors from Japan which you apparently forgot to highlight!”
I take Trusty
Isn’t the water a little cold yet?
Beautiful pictures, Angi!
I really love the one with the raindrops in what looks to be part of the water seperated by a sand bar!
Road trip?…camera!
@SaadiaOnline - The lens was actually wet with water when I took those… so that is why!
@GERKshinobi - It’s a little gfm 5megapix… It has too settings, close and far. lol I don’t use it often at all so it gets me by. So far I like the images its given me… kind of like a Holga… thier crappy but you love them… know what I mean? lol
@seedsower - Fart spray?! Well don’t forget that when we’re on the bus! lol
my big stuffed dog, he loves to travel !……………………(fart spray??)
Yay for fart spray!
Great shots. I always take a fishing rod and a small tackle box.
I love love that second pic! I will probably make a list and check it twice when I go someplace. I try to take a camera, cell, $ (at least .50 in quarters on me all the time, back from the days when there were these things called pay phones) and tissues.
I like blurry pictures.
I take a driver with money.
Dear Angie,
Haven’t been on a trip in a long while, but I’d have to say my videocamera, which goes with me on my “excursions”.
I love mustard and mayo on my sandwiches.

Mornin Glorie……. I always take a good map, this cassette tape I mixed back in 1977 with amazing driving music and my sister….now the important thing is my sister brings the best stuff like the camera – the greatest snacks – and the cell phone – we do not have fart spray though – we just blame that on Leroy
…..I’m so jealous..
Generally I always bring something to drink, my camera, a little cash, and perhaps my kids. Yeah, don’t want to forget them…although I have been tempted to trade them at one of those tourists traps for some Walnut bowls on occasion.
Definately the camera!!! I always say that the best souvineer is pictures. They last long after the knick knacks have been broken.
I like bringing my iPod… and I like the person who said that they bring the motorcycle. We try to whenever we can!
What kind of water camera do you have?
I always take a book to read, a night light for the hotel room, and the ever present can of air spray! I’m with you seedsower – don’t travel without it.
I take my iPhone.
Those are really cool pictures.
Cool pictures…I like especially like the picture with the water ripples from the rain drops…pretty.
When on a road trip I make sure not to forget my mp3 player stuffed full of music and some podcasts. I get motion sickness reading on a bus or in cars…so music will have to do and it works…hours of entertainment to match my every mood.
as always….. the pictures are absolutely gorgeous!!! what’s the one thing i ALWAYS take with me when i travel? my journal… well that and a pen. a journal would be kind of useless without a pen, now wouldn’t it? tee hee!!!!
Now that I scrapbook I take my camera, but I not an expertise like you. Your pics amaze me.
I’ve seen you here and there on Xanga for well, awhile now and finally stopped over…loved the pictures-especially the rainy day one at the beach.
Cool shots!
I always take my noise maker— I can’t sleep without it!
