You'd think with 2-3 trips a year, I'd actually remember how to drive from the airport to WDW (although most of the time DH is driving and I'm going through all of my papers to make sure I have everything).

Anyway, we're arriving on Friday on Continental from Newark at around 2 PM. Want to stop on the way to Wilderness Lodge for some juice (for younger ds) and a few little things to tide us over for the weekend.

Can someone give me the best driving directions so that I don't end up at the Crossroads, which is so expensive it makes Whole Foods up here look cheap? Maybe to one of the Walmarts that is pretty close so we don't lose too much time?

Thanks.
 
when you get off 417 - turn left (straight is disney) - a 2 miles down this road is a Publix. (international drive)

to get to walmart (this one is new and crowded and I mean crowded) - go through that light at the next one turn left (535) - about 2 miles down this road - you will need to turn right between 2 gas stations - Calypso Cay

I really would not go to this Walmart....
 
Here are Mapquest directions to the Publix I use when I go. I don't know if it's the same one Spiceycat recommended, that one may be closer.

This one is right near Gaylord Palms.
