Vacation Photo Blues
I bought a new compact camera for the first time in nine years.
The last compact camera was also my first compact camera, a swanky upgrade to digital photography with a real screen on the back to preview images, 5 whole megapixels of power, and a shutter speed that could produce sharp, steady images about fifty percent of the time.
That camera now lives in a closet. I thought perhaps it was time for an upgrade, and I had a trip coming up.

If there are three things I know for certain about Disneyland, they are:
