Find out which of the moodlets your Sim is likely to experience on their next vacation with this guide!

Note: You must have “The Sims 3: World Adventures” installed on your computer before your Sim will receive any of these vacation moodlets in “The Sims 3.”

Soaked – lasts for 2 hours and has a negative 5 mood effect. Your Sim will receive this moodlet if they were soaked from a Dive Well in a tomb.
