Just packing for Wed and I am trying to figure out what to pack. We are going for 8 days so I figure there is a washing machine if I need it. Are 2 bathing suits for each enough? How about pants and sweatshirts? I was just gonna bring one pair of pants and one sweatshirt. Think this is ok? What do you all pack for 8 days?
 
How many of you are there? Any children? Since it may be cool I would suggest at least 2 pairs of pants and a sweatshirt for each, especially since you mentioned you'll be doing laundry anyway. I normally pack half the amount of clothes for the number of days I'M staying and then wash them. I usually stay almost 2 weeks so there is no way I'm packing 14 days worth of clothes for 4 people because I don't want all the luggage.
Also remember raingear just in case. I usually buy ponchos from the dollar store so I can just throw them away.
 
I agree about ponchos. It almost always rains us atleast once. And were not talking sprinkles either. The ponchos are really expensive at Disney. Since the parks clear out when rains it is nice to puch a poncho on and keep going if its not thundering or freezing. The lines are much shorter.

Also, we were there last week and some really cold weather one night. I would definitely pack atleast one warm outfit for each person. The day's were very nice though.

We usually take one bathing suit and wash it in the shower each night. Hang it up to dry and its ready for the next day.
 
Don't forget sunscreen and possibly sunglasses. Though Disney sunglasses are usually around $14. As of Thursday of the next week the lows will be in the mid 60's. It seems like one pair of pants and a sweatshirt would be the most you need if that. For the days make sure you have light colored cotton shirts. The sun down here can be a bit much. As stated before bring ponchos. Disney ponchos are about $7. We always forget to bring ours so I have about 7 of them and their are only 2 of us. But they are great when DD11 rides her bike to school and it is raining lightly. They cover over her backpack nicely.

I do the same thing, I bring a small plastic bottle filled with woolite from home and wash the suits in the sink and hang them up for the next day.
