Kali River Rapids...will we really get soaked?

[emij]

I made it through the ride mostly dry, then got stuck in front of the squirt guns on the bridge... that 4 minute wait spent with pre-teen boys manning the squirt guns aiming at my face meant I was just as drenched as those who got wet on the drop.

 

[grnflash]

If anyone is looking for a solution other than a thin poncho.....Only rode Kali once but have a lot of water ride experience! I've paid my dues getting drenched and walking around a park (DCA/Sea World) wet and bedraggled. But the now 8 yr old loves these rides so on we go. Ponchos are such a pain, can't stand 'em. My solution - the Coleman EVA jacket. They come in kid and adult sizes, nice colors, zip up front, hood, very lightweight and scrunch up small in my backpack. They are even water cannon-proof at Sea World. Couldn't ask for more and much more practical than toting around a change of clothes (or looking like a hot mess all day lol.) Bought mine at Target 3 or 4 years ago, no holes or rips yet (probably gets used 50x a year.) Best 12 bucks I ever spent.
