Coffee + safe


does not equal a good thing, as some guests recently discovered. There are security safes, like the one pictured, in all of the tree houses. They are large enough for passports, wallets, small cameras, etc.

However, they are not built to withstand dumping coffee on top of them (go figure). After an evening of dinner and libations at one of the local restaurants, a couple decided to have some coffee. How, exactly, the coffee got on and into the safe isn't exactly clear.

There are combinations to all of the safes (though that doesn't stop some folks from trying to program their own and locking themselves out) and they are battery operated.

Apparently, the coffee got the batteries wet and the connections, so they couldn't open it up. We have keys for all of the safes, so we can use those to open everything up. That's what we did, and the couple retrieved their passports and wallets before heading on to their next destination.
