  • Protect Your Cameras and Valuables

  • - Remember when you are on vacation to continue to think. You may be in a beautiful area, but sometimes people are looking for suckers. Leaving cameras and valuables in plain sight is not a good idea. For example, in Maui people often stop to watch the whales, leaving their cars unlocked while their luggage is in the back seat. While they are looking at the whales, others may be going through the bags. Also, remember to take your keys with you when you lock the car. Many people forget and then end up having to shell out cash to get back into the car.

  • Protect Your Valuables - And Yourself

  • - Do not carry your camera equipment or other valuables around in bags marked with brand names on them. Try to conceal such items in a regular backpack or in other less obvious ways.

    While driving in large cities always keep your windows up, doors locked, and valuables out of sight. Travel well-lit, busy routes. If you are accosted or followed, drive to a busy place like convenience store or gas station, a police station, or fire hall. Once there, stay in your car and draw attention to yourself by honking your horn.

  • Protecting Your Film

  • - When you are finished with a roll of film, leave it in your hotel safe rather than your camera bag. If your camera is stolen, you still have the film.

  • Remember the Fire Exits

  • - When you first go into your hotel room and before you throw down your bags and collapse exausted - take a moment to look back out into the corridor and remember where the fire exit is (in THIS hotel!) It takes only a moment. And - if you're exiting your room during a fire alarm - Remember! take your key with you - you may need to get back in if your exit is blocked by fire.

  • Safety-Conscious Packing

  • - Take a flashlight with you on your trip and keep it on the nightstand in your hotel room during the night. A battery operated smoke detector and a roll of duct tape can save your life in the event of a hotel fire. The duct tape is to block vents and door cracks if you are ever trapped in a hotel room during a fire.
