To celebrate Wonder Boy’s 40th birthday, I planned a packed Day of Fun. We did a behind-the-scenes tour of the Cincinnati Zoo and Botanical Gardens, visited the National Museum of the United States Air Force, had drinks at Tank’s Bar and Grill and capped off the evening with a meal at Nicola’s in Cincinnati.At the Zoo, we weren’t allowed to carry around a camera. Fortunately, a staff person took photos and will be mailing us a CD of them soon. (Cannot wait!!!) We caught some selfies, though. Sun, flowers, the feeling of Summer even though it was only April. What’s not to like?

Note the lack of arms taking over this picture? Normally I’m reaching out so far going for a good pic that I end up really just capturing the essence of my elbow. Thanks to The Pole Selfie Stick – not an issue.

The lighting at the National Museum of the US Air Force was not really conducive to selfies. That and all the people in uniform had me feeling a little self conscience. I did capture some fun photos of flight memorabilia, though!

While in Dayton, we hit up one of Wonder Boy’s favorite bars!

I love that we were able to take our own photo and have it include the sign. Impossible without The Pole Selfie Stick.

Wonder Boy and I travel a lot just the two of us, One definite challenge to this is getting photographs of ourselves form the trips. Usually, pictures are just of one or the other of us, unless we find a kind stranger who offers to take out picture. Using The Pole Selfie Stick, we were able to take several pictures of the two of us. I’m so excited for what this means for upcoming vacations!

The Pole Selfie Stick is easy to use. I paired it with my iPhone 4S, which is on it’s last leg, and it worked great. I felt like the phone was secure, even when I had The Pole extended out it’s full length. We got the hang of this quickly and fabulous photos as a result! I don’t have a GoPro but this works with those as well, which seems like a great feature.

I received a The Pole Selfie Stick to sample and review. All views shared here are my own.

The Pole Selfie Stick - great for capturing photographs.
