My best tip...

[Del]

I just got back. The best tip I can offer you is to please pack those medicines that take up room that are easy to forget. The bandaids, motrin, cold medicine, pepto, chammoile tea etc... My dd woke us up Sat. night throwing up...glad i had the tea and the pepto. My 2nd dd woke us up Sun. night throwing up...glad i had the tea and the pepto. Then dd #1 had a fever ...glad i had the medicine. Pack it ...have it handy!! Have fun!!

that's for sure. We drove down one year and arrived in Kissimmee on New Year's Eve about 4pm. As soon as we hit the Florida border our son's eyes and nose started running. There was obviously something he was allergic to in the air.
Try to find a drug store open on New Year's Eve.
Now I always pack anything and everything I think I might need. Also being from Canada, there is a difference in what is available in drugs in the US, so we sometimes we can't find any drugs with a recognizable (to us) name.

Not to be gross, but don't forget meds for constipation and diarreha too!

Two of our girls were sick by the time we got to DW this past Feb. We have a 15 hour drive and left in wintery conditions here in WV and arrived the next day in beautiful 70+ degree weather. I was glad I remembered to pack all the meds so we didn't have to run out and try to find something in a strange city.

I always say it hasn't been a real family vacation until someone vomits. We just got back from our trip and low and behold no one did. Amazing!! I packed all my meds, and the only thing we used were a few tylenol for headaches and tums for over eating at Beaches and Cream! We had an awsome time and I'm not sorry I overpacked what I might have needed.

I agree with you. Even though I had packed medicane (I was starting to get sick on our trip--sinus problems--I ran out and dh had to buy some at the Disney store).
