Wet 'n Wild Aquatic Theme Park, Orlando, Florida, September 1980

1980, printed 1984

A bustling water park scene with people swimming and lounging around a large pool. In the background, there's a prominent "Wet'n Wild" sign on a wall, and a tall water slide structure extends into the sky. The foreground shows sun loungers and folded umbrellas on a tiled deck, with a few palm trees adding to the tropical ambiance. The sky is partly cloudy, suggesting a warm but overcast day.
