Questions for the experts!:)

[SnowyPrincesses:)]

Hi there! I'm planning a trip for 4 in Dec. I have a couple questions that would help my planning. How big are the large lockers REALLY? There will be 3 adults and one 7 year old, I figure we'll have to store rain ponchos and warmer clothes, yadda yadda. Will all of our stuff fit in one large locker. (i can pack stuff pretty tight but I want to be able to budget my money out and an extra locker a day can add up!) Also I read somewhere the lockers are transferable if you park hop. Can anyone confirm this?
My mom claims that when there used to be boats from which you could watch the water parade and the fireworks. She is adament that its not the Illuminations cruise she means. Does anyone know what she's talking about?
I'd appreciate any help, I have several more questions but I have to go to work to pay for the mouse!!!!! :space:

I think a large locker will do fine for just some clothes/ponchos - Ulimately, it depends on how much 'yadda yadda' you have to deal with weather it will handle it. But I'm guessing it will. Since there are 4 of you, one or two could always carry a backpack as well.


Also I read somewhere the lockers are transferable if you park hop. Can anyone confirm this?
Yes, like parking, stroller rentals etc, just take your reciept from one park to the next. You may have to pull down the deposit at each place, but if so, you'll get that back when you pay and leave each park.

Since she's talking The Seven Seas Lagoon/Bay lake (has to be since you said the Electric water pagent) she could be talking about either the Blue flag or green flag launches which shuttle between the resorts/MK or the Ticket/Transportation Ferries which run strictly between TTC and the MK.

They have shuttle ferries that take you from one side of World Showcase to the other. I'm not sure if they run during Illuminations, but maybe that's what she is thinking of.

Those boats do not run during Illuminations.

You can now do a Wishes cruise, it's like an Illuminations cruise but the boat parks near MK on the Seven Seas Lagoon.

The large lockers can fit more than a full-stuffed backpack. We put a full backpack plus two pairs of shoes and a sweatshirt. Granted, we had to force the door closed, but it fit. We always take an extra pair of shoes to the parks when they are calling for rain, that way if our shoes get soaked we can put on dry ones after the storm passes.
