That's a good thing. I did that when my kids were small, back a few years ago.
Am I missing anything? or am I off base with carrying a good size kit into the park? Can you bring in a camera?
You can certainly bring in all the cameras you want. But if I may offer one older dad's very humble opinion, it sounds to me like you are may end up missing something if you load yourself down like a pack mule with extraneous gear during this rare experience with your children.
Actually I visited that place during the dim time, the film time, with one Pentax Super Program SLR body and a 50mm prime. It didn't require much attention. I got a few shots that are still on family walls, desks and mantles all over the country, including one of my wife and son that I still look at every day.
If I went back today with my grandkids, even though I own every fancy DSLR that Canon makes and most of their 'L' lenses, I would go in with a G6 (or G7) and maybe a 430EX. I surprise myself these days with how often my best photo friend turns out to be the SD550.
Enjoy your trip :-). --Ken S. * **** ******* *********************************************************** * For list instructions, including unsubscribe, see: * http://www.a1.nl/phomepag/markerink/eos_list.htm ***********************************************************
