hand sanitizer? tissues? Hmmmm, I am so used to packing for small children I have forgotten what is essential for just adults.

 

[Forevryoung]

Do you need water shoes AND sandals?? That is a lot to carry.

You should have a fan mister (get a small one from CVS or Walmart). We really needed them. Batteries for camera? Cell phone?

 

[Fast Pass]

Tiny Scissors! I believe that security will ask you to take those out.

If you are traveling with kids, you might want to slip in a bathsuit for them. There are fountains to splash around in at Epcot, Donald's boat at Toon Town, and the fountains at DTD.

Most definately take the fan or misters with you! Also the handsanitizer. It not only cleans but it is cooling! Sorry about the scissors, unless they are plastic,,they can't go with you. If you take ziploc bags with you, you can put your camera in one and keep it dry. We do this on all the water rides.
Have a great trip!!

I noticed addresses and email addresses.

Do you need stamps for snail mail?

Are the pennies for the pressed penny machines?
If so, we found the plastic canisters that a single roll of film come in work great. I have one that I keep the money in. Alternate two quarters and one shiney penny so I don't have to dig around for the right change.

And then I carry another one to put the pressed pennies in. They fit great if you slide them in on their side.

Have a great time.

Since when? I carry manicure scissors, tweezers & nail clippers in my purse all the time (except on an airplane). No one at Disney has ever checked that closely.

Love the film canister idea for the pressed pennies!

 

[familyfirsttimer]

I would add bug repellent too. Large plastic bags for wet clothes/shoes.

That's all I can think of for now.

How about:

Camera charger

Mobile telephone charger

Copies of all travel information, including hotel reservations, park tickets (front and back), and anything else you should keep a copy of.

If you wear contacts, bring an extra pair (oftentimes your eye doctor will have samples so he/she can give you a pair at no charge)

Duplicate of SIM card for mobile telephone -- I lost my mobile telephone last year at the MK and had very few people's telephone numbers memorized. I will be bringing my phone in to Cingular right before my trip to have them make me a copy of the SIM card inside (if yours has this) so, if I lose my phone again, I can always have a copy of all the telephone numbers once I get a new phone. This costs about $25. Learned that one the hard way.

Health / Dental / Prescription Insurance or AAA cards (if necessary)

Brush Ups (these are great to make your mouth feel clean after eating and take up no space at all!)

Lip balm (my favorite is Lip Smacker by Bonne Bell)


Have a great time! Tell Mickey and Minnie I am scheduled to see them in just a few days!

Oh, I also went to www.mousesavers.com and typed in "Ultimate Packing List" under their search bar. Once the page comes up, click on "www.mousesavers.com - Time is Money".

When you scroll down, you will see a big yellow box in the middle of the screen to click on for this list. It is so awesome! I use it every year!

What are you using to carry all of your things in?

 

[Deb & Bill]

You're going to lug all that stuff around the theme parks? Not me.

How about tickets, room ID, driver's license and a bit of cash? That's all. Leave all the other junk in your room. You will tire of carrying all that stuff around very quickly.

We are using one backpack and one fannie pack that my DH and I can switch off with one another. (I know, I know what many of you are saying about thefannie pack but we like it!)
Thanks for all the great ideas, everyone! Keep 'em coming!!

Hey, I love my WDW fanny pack! I am not into carrying around a back pack so the fanny pack works great for me! I always bring the one I got at WDW so I feel right in line with the Disney theme.

toilet seat covers!!!!!
teenie, tiny package - Walmart $.97 for 12!!

Even though it is a small package, I wouldn't add it as something extra. Wehn we were there in Many, there was not 1 bathroom in any of the parks that did not have seat covers in them. We never found an empty one either (amazing, I wish WDW would teach my mall how to do that )

I think you'll find that you don't need half the stuff you are carrying & that you are going to get very sore & tired lugging it around.

Once DS was older, I stick to water, ID, Pass, Cash, maybe a small container with advil & tums & sometimes a camera. Even on trips that I plan to take pix, I only carry a camera a couple days. If you're staying onsite, going to the resort is easy to switch shoes, socks whatever. If you're offsite, you might consider a locker if you feel you need all that stuff.

 

[Hopefully]

How about Moleskin for sore feet Before blisters form!
