Hello,

I took a Minolta 7sII the first time I went to Disney.  Actually, I took
Dave S's Minolta 7sII to Disney the first time I went there.  Same reasons,
same results.  One of the pictures hanging on the wall as I type.

For the ex's birthday ( 4th of July ! ) some years ago, some friends and I
treated her to a surprise trip to Great America north of Chicago.  Knowing
we would be in crowds and doing most of the rides, especially the wet ones,
I opted to take along an old, somewhat beat up, Rollei 35.  Same type litlle
rascal I often carried in Viet Nam.  Small, simple, very sharp lens ( 3.5
Tessar ), and can hide in a shirt pocket away from the splash.  And no
problem with sophisticated electronics quitting from a little dampness.  And
no great tears if it got dropped.
   
  I would recomend it or one of these very small Olympus minis.  After all,
sometimes family fun comes before pictures....
