Do you drive to the parks if you have a car? Staying at ASMo

Another vote for DRIVE!

Especially with little ones. We are able to leave a lot of stuff right in the back of the van. A case of bottled water, a box of snacks, ponchos, jackets, sunblock, STROLLERS! We don't have to lug them to back to the room every nights.

We use the back of our van as our little refueling station. When we are done with a park we throw everything in the back and each grab a bottle of water for the drive back to the resort. That lets us just park it and hit the bed...lugging just our refillable mugs, perhaps a toy we picked up that day, and our camera bag (to recharge batteries). In the morning we stroll out to the van, go to a park, pull out the stroller, restock it with snacks and whatever else we might need for the day, grab a bottle of water and head for the gates!

prior to our trip in March, we had always driven. We were visiting with friends who wanted to ride the bus to MK....it won't happen again. The wait is a pain but then coming back - we were in front of the yellow line that they tell you to be behind because the bus driver wasn't sure when they would dispatch another bus.

We always drive, I like being able to leave immediately when I feel that I am ready, I am not a patient person when it comes to waiting!

Last time we found that it was more convenient for us to drive*. Sometimes the bus transportation was punctual, other times we had to wait quite a while. But we found that when we drove, our van was always there and waiting for us.

*--Exception to the rule for us was MK. We really liked the bus dropping us off right at the MK entrance. If you drive, you have to take the tram to the TTC then ride from there to MK. This time around, we'll take the bus to MK but otherwise, we'll be driving.

Wow- I'm surprised that so many people drive. We leave the car parked and bus it everywhere. I've never really even considered driving - maybe we'll have to give it some thought next time.

Same here, even when we drive down, the car gets parked and we take the buses.
