    Lightbulb Most helpful tip?

    What was your favorite, most helpful tip for traveling to Disney?

    I have 2. The first was take a power strip to have one place to place to plug in all those electronics. The second was to take a night light. We would put this in the bathroom area when the kids were small so they could find their way should they wake in the middle of the night.

    Your turn...

    I would say...bring a suitcase filled with snacks. That way you get the food when your down there and an empty bag to take back any goods.

    Take a break in the middle of the day, especially if you have kids along, and/or if you go in the summer. Even the first time I went, when we stayed off-site, we went to the motel for some pool time, then returned for the evening parade.

    1. Bring a chip clip to hold curtains closed.
    2. Moleskin for potential blisters.

    My ultimate, don't foget tip is every day you go to a park where there is the potential to get wet, pack a pair of undies and light weight shorts or pants for everybody in a ziploc bag. It takes up little room in the backpack. This way when you leave a water ride you will not have to deal with the wet fabric on the inside of your legs. this is especially helpful for kids! I have a couple more tips at planyourdisneytrip.blogspot.com. I am trying to get all of my Disney helpers, tips and tricks in one place for all of my friends to reference. They always call me for their Disney advice!
    Waiting till November! Oh Mickey.... How we miss you so! *O*
