First trip without a Stroller

[scampiekat]

Hoping to be able to only use a crossbody bag for the small stuff. I can wear it on the ride, right?

We are staying off site and not doing park hopper, I think we will also need a backpack for sweatshirts and things since we will be staying the entire day. Do the parks are lockers? or is it easier to just wear the backpack around? or run back to the car in the afternoon?

We always just wear our backpacks. Just make sure they are not too heavy. Even the lightest load get heavy after 10 hours in the parks.

I agree with the previous poster to watch the weight. I brought a backpack into the parks one day...and there was a reason it was the only day I did! When I grabbed that backpack in the morning everyone decided "Oh, look, more room, I now suddenly need this also!" I originally grabbed it because our daughters wore their princess dresses and I thought rather than having them wear them over clothes (It was mid-80s that day) I'd bring their regular clothes with in case they wanted to change. My back was killing me by the end of the day. Small crossbody is the way to go. We never really *needed* more room than that to be honest. If I were you I'd put stuff in the car and if needed run out to the car (you can always have just one person go get things and one stay and do a ride with the kids, ect). It won't be a 'quick' run to the car from what I have heard at MK so don't plan that it will be quick but in my opinion it is better than carrying it all around all day. Plus, that long walk/ride back to the car will make you really evaluate whether what is in the car is worth going back for

Yes, there are lockers, much easier to shove the extra snacks/clothes/jackets for later in there than lug them around all day
