    Best clothes to wear on a theme park water ride?

    Getting soaked a couple times this weekend got me thinking on this vital question. The best I could come up with was a white shirt and glasses over a blue "Superman" T-shirt.

    Better suggestions?

    This must surely be the most surreal thread title ever created.

    Love to go theme parks, I am the roller coaster queen. Tend to leave the water rides 'till last though, so if needs be you can change before you go home soggy in your wet gear.

    Last year my friends and I went to Alton Towers and we adorned plastic ponchos. I now have the 'Maid of the Mist' blue poncho from the Niagra Falls experience when I went to Canada last September. Now that was a water ride and we all didn't care how we looked when frocked out in blue plastic,the power of the falls was majestic.

    If its sunny water rides first and let the sun dry you during the day. But don't wear jeans, chavvy as they seem tracksuit bottoms dry best.

    If its raining, whenever you like your going to get wet anyway.

    If its in the middle at the end and get changed when youve been on them all.

    DO NOT BUY ONE OF THOSE PONCHOS, YOU LOOK LIKE YOU ARE SCARED OF A BIT OF WATER!

    I don't think a poncho would have helped me this Saturday, unless it came with attached waders.

    Double Trouble, I'm shocked and dismayed that a parent would suggest nudity in a family area like a theme park.
    (unless there are special adults only theme parks, in which case forget I said anything)

    Don't be a wimp and wear a poncho,or a plassy bag,or bring your brolly and waders.

    Just get in there and splash, laugh and scream your way around on the ride and have great memories of doing something that is absolutley daft. Enjoy and get soaked good and proper.

    I dont think they issue magnifying glasses at these theme parks Martin, so I think you needn't worry about upsetting anyone.
