Should I pack ponchos?

[zcomic]

We bought the cheap ones and took them with us on our first trip. The first time it rained we put them on and 3 out of 4 ripped. We ended up getting the Mickey ones at the park and take them on every trip. We view them as a 'functional souvenir".

We took 2 each of the .87 ponchos from Wal-Mart. They were not the strongest, but worked great for us and held up well on the days we needed them. They scrunched up well when we needed to put them away and then we just threw them out when finished for the day. It was very easy to distinguish us in our clear ponchos among the sea of yellow Mickeys. One of my funniest memories of our trip was another family with the same ponchos passing us and remarking to us, "There's some fellow 87-centers!" with a big thumps up LOL
