How should Grandma pack for a trip in May?

[hodad]

We're going to MK on May 1 and Grandma will be flying separately and meeting us at Coronado Springs. She wants to know what to pack, and while there are exhaustive packing lists available on the internet, I can't find guides on what sorts of outfits to pack if you aren't a 28yo.

Can you point me toward some good advice or provide your own ideas for comfy, seasonally appropriate outfits? Thanks!

Not outfit advice really (although be sure to advise her to bring a rain coat or poncho, something she doesn't mind hauling around, a sweater or something in case it turns chilly in the evening, really good walking shoes (ideally 2 pair) with multiple socks (moisture wicking not a bad idea)) but sundries:
* sunscreen
* bandaids and such, including blister bandaids or moleskin (bring scissors for that!)
* chargers for electronic devices
* meds, including allergy if needed
* swimsuit if she intends to use the pool and maybe some flipflops or something like that for around the pool
* camera
* a fun attitude!

I'm a grandma and i bring capris and comfortable tops along with light sweaters that can be layered if cold but easily carried or tied around my waist if it's warm. As far as shoes, I live in good flip flops like Clarks and tevas and have never had a problem with blisters or foot pain. She should bring at least 2-3 pairs of whatever she is really comfortable in.

I grew up with a girl that WAS a grandma at 28 .Really her list would look almost identical to yours. Encourage her to pack what she is comfortable in. I am 50 but do not like shorts, she might. Remind her to have two pair of comfortable shoes and take any and all meds she could need. If she is not use to traveling, remind her of things like chargers for any devices, a good travel and park bag ( like cross body style).

Most grandmas I see Disney are dressed relatively the same as I am - shorts or capris and t-shirts or tanks. I wear a lot of flip flops, but I would think a good pair of walking/tennis shoes would be good to add to the mix.
