You did when I was younger at the YWCA though - I hated those things - it was like a bath mat for your head!

Great points on the other dangers we survived. 30 minutes is nothing compared to the second hand smoke and the seat belts!Martini Cartwheelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03906053155319523438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7660871285427237621.post-33744395786703121032014-08-16T12:40:39.304-04:002014-08-16T12:40:39.304-04:008thday - bathing caps!

And they were worried about the 30 minutes!<br /><br />No helmets here either. Usually no seat belts either. Plus my parents smoked in the car on the way to vacation. And the radio was only AM...

I grew up at the beach so it was bathing caps, the 30 minute (to the dot) wait to swim, and then the footpan to rinse the sand off before coming into the house.<br /><br />Of course, for us, the danger was very real.
