Holiday Time!?

billkelly · 07-01-2010, 04:54 AM

Hi,

I am after ideas / suggestions / advice. I am going on holiday soon and having been exclusively using my 505 for reading I do not want to go back to paperbacks.
So what do other people do about the beach, pool and sea.
I am usually very careful so am only really wooried about sand, but there will be fluids around. The only idea I have had is to cover the whole reader in cling film, but this might glare ( I also worried about heat build up ).

any thoughts?

cheers

When I'm at the pool, I read in the shade of a tree or umbrella table.
When I go to take a dip to cool off, I put my reader in a ziplock bag and then place that into a padded envelope. Can't be too safe!

I use a ziploc storage or freezer bag (the freezer bags are thicker but less transparent) at the beach and pool and for casual use it works great. You can also purchase waterproof transparent bags such as Dry Pac and Aloksak.
