Yeah, cameras held up, everything worked the way you wanted it.

0:34.9

Yeah, although I think I might have, I've either lost my camera lens cleaning kit in the house or I left it there because I was going to clean my cameras today and I couldn't find my kit. It's just like a little, you know, microfiber cloth and lens cleaning solutions. Like, it's not expensive stuff. So I just ordered some new stuff from B&H, in fact. But I ordered it in the hopes that as soon as I placed the order, I would find it in the house and that didn't work. Don't you wear glasses? I do.

Well, I'm glad your vacation results were good.
