It reminds me of that Nationwide commercial where the guy totals his car but "all in all it's a pretty good day" because the Nationwide nerd saved his coffee.
Only this is much better! Yay for a new camera!

What a bummer. It's always the photos you miss, isn't it? A couple of years ago I did a race in New Orleans where everyone, including boys, including me and my male friends, all wore a red dress and walked 3 miles through the streets of the city. I took A TON of photos. The next day, I went to the zoo, where I took a ton of photos. That evening my boyfriend left my camera in the car. I was SOOOO bummed. I felt like my memories were gone. BUT, he felt bad and bought me a much more updated camera. So I guess it was good in the end! But darn it, I STILL want those pictures back!

Hi Karen - haven't peeked at your world for a while now, and it seems you've had a few - intersting - weeks. Dont give up hope. There are honest people around. And for the times when relying on others' honesty lets you down - insurance.
Keep smiling, girl.
BTW - never having been to Disneyland myself, I didn't know that adults visited it. Oh, and hopefully I didn't insult you by calling you an adult.

Good for you on looking at the positive. Now you ...

Good for you on looking at the positive. Now you make me want to go get a new camera.

I'm so very sorry to hear about your camera :(...

I'm so very sorry to hear about your camera :( And you're right... it's never about the camera itself; it's the memories you have on that card that matter the most. I had a camera stolen once in Italy, but it was on my first day of the trip. I was so upset at the time, but consider myself lucky in hindsight. If I had lost all my pictures, I would have been devastated.

I'm so happy to hear you can finally get the camera of your dreams now! And it sure is a beauty :)

d.land is my fave place in the world, no joke. that sucks about your camera!! i had that happen to me but was luckier. at least you're looking on the brightside.

Nothing worse than losing a camera full of photos....

Nothing worse than losing a camera full of photos. So glad most were uploaded to your computer. I have a Nikon coolpix (red, too!) and love it. Though I let my college age daughter take it because it's smaller and portable than her Panasonic Lumix, which I also love. Enjoy your new camera!

PS Same daughter lost a cellphone at DisneyWorld and we never saw it again. I felt the same way you do about the "Happiest Place on Earth"...

Sorry you lost the camera, and double-sorry you ha...

2012-01-13T00:21:48.197-08:00

Sorry you lost the camera, and double-sorry you have no photos of Disneyland to post here.

I used to love and live at Disneyland. Haven't been there since 1994 and probably will never be inside the gates of The Magic Kingdom ever again.

The next time you're going to go, please let me know in advance and I'll tell you where I scratched my friend's initials (K.R.A. - Kelly Rey Anderson) in 1986, the year he killed himself.

You can tell me if his initials are still there... if you will look and report back for me.

Nikons are goooood. I take it as a great opportunity to upgrade. Hope you like your new camera (though it's sad that the memory card of yours is still MIA).

I lost my camera a few weeks ago, but I knew it was in the house somewhere at least. I found it in the craziest place, waaaaay in the back of a drawer in the living room. I have NO idea how it got there. Sucks that you lost yours, but I'm glad you are getting the one you really wanted now!

I'm glad it worked itself out in the end! I ho...

I lost my wallet AGAIN today. This is the third time I've done this, in as many months. And all three times, someone has turned it in. My luck WILL run out.

That looks like a great camera!

Such a bummer about your camera! My husband lost his hat and sunglasses on a ride. (Idiot! Always put them in the backpack!!!) We filled out a form, but thought it was useless since his sunglasses were pretty expensive. But about six weeks later we got a package in the mail and there it all was! If you haven’t yet contacted Disney lost and found, try that and you may just get it back...eventually. I’d like to think people were friendly and honest at least at the most magical place on Earth!

The Nikon Coolpix are great cameras! I'm sorry...

The Nikon Coolpix are great cameras! I'm sorry your other one is gone, but you'll love this one.

Oh man, that stinks to have lost your camera. I hope nobody creepy found it, too! But, now get to have the camera you really want. My camera just died this past week, and it's horrible to be without it!

I would have cried if I lost my camera. I can't function without a camera....but I'm glad you will get the one you wanted and it'll feel like you're not really buying it...which is the best! Enjoy the new camera and TAKE PICTURES this year!

I'm happy and annoyed for you. But mostly happy. That camera seems perfect.

Isn't it so bittersweet when someone gives you something you want, but it's something you would really have rather picked out for yourself?

Wow. I can't believe you had those thoughts and promptings. That is pretty cool!

I'm glad you got your new camera. One less thing to remind you of "P". I'm assuming that's who bought it for you. ;)

That pisses me off for you! Especially when you lose something such as a camera at Disneyland, of all places. It's supposed to be the happiest place on earth and someone can't turn the darn thing in to Lost and Found??

Nevertheless, you'll love the Nikon! I have the Coolpix S8000 and it's amazing!!!

At least you're getting a new one for free! Nikons are good cameras.
