Park hopping and getting hands stamped

[opus_00]

We are purchasing 5-day park hopper tickets. If I remember correctly, we can go to more than one park in the same day, and it won't "deduct" more than one day from the pass, right? But DH said something about remembering that we had to get our hands stamped upon leaving the parks. I don't remember that...what would the reason for that be? I think we left the MK one evening and went over to Epcot for dinner, but I don't remember getting our hands stamped. If we forget to get our hands stamped at one park, will they not let us in at Epcot? Are there any other rules for park hopping?

I think we got hands stamped, unless I'm confusing with DLP

can't really answer you question though I'm afraid

on the same subject, if you get hands stamped, does it wear off if you go in the pool?? how do you get back into a park later in the day??

I'm confusing myself lol

Yes, you have to get your hand stamped. They won't always check for your hand stamp upon re-entry, but if they do, I don't think they'd let you in without it. I think they require hand stamping to keep you from sharing passes. For example, a family of 5 could send 3 people in with tickets, and then one of them could leave with all of the tickets and bring the other 2 people in.

Your stamp won't wear off in the water, even if you go to the water parks. You will just barely be able to see it, as it needs a black light to be visible, but it will be there for days.

You also won't forget to have your hand stamped. When you leave, it will be obvious that you need go to a lane where they're stamping.
