September 30, 2007Home Life > Stupid AquadoodleI thought Katie's Aquadoodle pen was broken. I couldn't get the cap off to refill it it with water, even with a pair of pliers. We bought a new Aquadoodle travel kit last night, and I couldn't get the cap off that one, either. Then I looked at the pen. Next to the words "Turn the cap to open" (translated beneath as "Tournez le capuchen pour ouvrir") is an arrow pointing to the left. So instead of the normal righty-tighty left-loosy the cap is reverse threaded. I don't know what "Tournez le capuchen pour ouvrir" means, but I'm guessing it's "we set up our tooling backwards."

I know what a Labradoodle is, but I'd never heard of an Aquadoodle before. Something similar, I presume. Posted by: triticale at September 30, 2007Right. It's the lovechild of Aquaman and a poodle. Posted by: Les Jones at September 30, 2007Glad, I'm not the only one that struggled with that stupid cap! Posted by: Don at September 30, 2007When you think about it, it makes sense - kids have figured out how to unscrew things, and the last thing you want is them unscrewing the pen and dumping all the water out for sh!ts and giggles...
