We drive down too. We usually pack enough snacks to eat during the 16 hour drive. Sometimes we have some left when we arrive at the resort. It all depends on how hungry my little monsters (my family) are.We drive down and always bring some food. Usually,it is just breakfast and snack items. We bring some drinks but not a lot - just some water bottles and maybe juice boxes. We used to bring more but found we didn't eat it all.
