What would you pack in your small cross-body bag for ONE day/ONE park at Disneyland?

Wallet, Rx Sunglasses
iPhone, Portable Charger, Charging Cable, Wall Charger
Meds/Ibuprofen/Eye drops/Gum/Mints/Ricola/Chapstick
Sunscreen (travel size),Lotion (travel size), and Sanitizer (attached to outside)
Kleenex (small purse pack)
Water bottle (attached to outside)


I am considering renting a locker for the following items:
Sweater, Long Pants
Extra snacks/Food, Umbrella


What did I miss???
 
I think your list pretty much covers everything i take. If the weather is not really hot and I plan to go on GRR or Splash I will put in a disposable rain poncho so I don't have to walk around totally soaked. If weather is hot, the soaking feels good. I don't take a wall charger for my phone just a fully charged portable one.
 
your list looks like mine! if you'll be there in the summer then you won't need long pants to change into. just a light sweatshirt for evening maybe.

I might be going this Saturday. Just Disneyland. Bringing the Wall plug just in case because I will be chaperoning Middle School Teenagers!! I want to have a fully charged phone ALL Day!

I might be going this Saturday. Weather in the evening might cool off. I live in the desert so below 50F is "cool".
 
There are phone charging stations on Main Street near the park entrance...I think it's in the same area as lockers.

Below 50F is "cool" to me, too! I'm in Tucson and anything below 70 is chilly for us. LOL!

So good to know about the "Charging Stations"!!
Near the lockers inside Disneyland? and are they USB ports or Wall plugs?
I was wondering when they would come to Disneyland.
 
They're in small locker thingy's. There's a bunch of info about it at http://www.wdwinfo.com/disneyland/plan/disneyland-guest-services.htm#Lockers. $2 for the 1st hour, $2 for each add'tl hour.

According to this post the Lockers inside Disneyland Park are temporarily unavailable?
Does anyone know if this is accurate?

This is interesting. I was recently in NYC and they had Charging Stations that were FREE in many areas of the city. They had several USB and Wall plug outlets at each charging station.
 
I take a small leather pouch that zips across the top for my drivers license, credit card, and cash. That way I am not lugging my whole heavy wallet with me.

Are you using your phone to take pictures? I sometimes take my small point and shoot to save my phone battery.

My wallet is VERY small so I don't mind taking it. I will probably not take many photos as I am not traveling with family/friends. This will be a School/Work Activity.

You explained later, but I wouldn't bother with charging while at DL for the day. But sounds like you will need to. Just bring something like an Anker and the cord.

Ibuprofen

They have that for free at First Aid, FYI.

I assume you don't walk away from those? The ones at Disney locks up your stuff so you can go DO stuff while it's charging.

Thanks . . . I forgot that.

I can't leave my phone because I must be available at all times.
 
I cant say for one day but my park bag usually looks something like yours.....

I have at least 2 bottles of water, a couple capri suns, various snacks for my kids, some small activities (for long lines), Sunscreen, My DSLR/GoPro, wallet, some extra cash separate from my wallet (in case it gets lost/stolen), External Battery pack with 2 USB ports (phone/gopro), tabletop tripod (sometimes).....and then other things depending on the day/evening....We always stock up on Glow-sticks at the dollar store before our trip for when the sun goes down....we had them during WOC and our kids loved it...plus it is A TON cheaper than glow/light up stuff in the park.
 
An external battery pack is the way to go since you cannot change out batteries on an iphone. Anker makes high quality small external batteries that will give you multiple charges.
 
I'd add a hat (unless you are an Ear person), and crystal light packets for the water.
 
Socks - our family doesn't like to walk around in wet socks after a water ride. Our socks sometimes even get wet on PoC.

You have most of the items - our main money saver is snacks!

Have fun!
 
Funny you say socks... i don't ever wear socks to DLR. I wear either Keens or Crocs, no socks. No wet socks, no bunched socks. If I get wet, I rinse out my shoe in a sink and I am good to go.

See my avatar... Mickey Crocs. They are not overly attractive, but they are comfy and I never have blisters.
