When you've driven yourself to one park and then hop to another do you leave your car at the first parking lot, hop to the next park via monorail/boat/etc, then return at the end of the day to the first lot to get your vehicle? Or do you exit the first park and drive to the next park's parking lot?

I'm thinking it would be more time consuming to travel by car between Epcot and MGM, or Epcot and MK, right? Wouldn't it be quicker to take the boat between Ep and MGM? Or the monorail between Ep and MK? If you do it this way could you tell me how you handle the parking lot thing? Do you park at the first park you're going to during the day, or at the park you know you'll end up at last?

I hope this made sense!! Thanks!
 
We would just park at Epcot and hop to those parks. If MK is open the latest you might want to park at MK and hop from there.

Very easy to do and fun riding the monorail and boat.
 
I always recommend that if you drive to the park, you drive to park hop. That way, at the end of a night, you don't have to take a bus to an empty parking lot to find your car.
 
Park your car at Boardwalk or Y/B club.

Take a bus / boat to where you want to be.....since epcot is usually open the latest and we finish with illuminations, it is natural for us to take the slow walk back to the car through the international gateway.
