How does your list compare?

I was surprised to read in the article that Disney does not provide lockers, as I thought I remembered reading that Mo, Nicole and Nicki got a locker when they were at Mk for 24 hours.

[GaDawgFan.....Kelly 799]

My list would be pretty similar. Sunscreen is a MUST for me because I'm so fair. I had to buy it one time at Epcot for about a million dollars.

We did get a locker, but had to put a deposit down for it. As you come through the turnstiles at MK they're on the right before you go under the train tracks. 

 

You got most of the deposit back when you returned the key.  I think the net cost was somewhere around $5??

disney does have lockers you just have to pay for them

They mean to store your bag while on a ride. Some theme parks have lockers in the station (they don't lock, so more of a cubby hole) for your bag while on the ride.

My list is pretty similar, too.  The only thing on that list that I don't bring with me into the park are extra socks.  

[rdancemom... Pam 113]

I rarely take along anything but money, a phone, and sometimes my camera. My sunglasses are usually on my head where they're needed to hold my hair back. Makes getting thru security much easier and I don't have to lug stuff around all day or fight with the kids about who carries what.

 

IIRC there are lockers in all the parks, just not at each ride entrance. Also, you have to pay for them, they're not free so I suppose technically you could say Disney does not provide them.

 

We put our sunscreen on before we leave the TT. Wearing sandals, we don't need socks. If I need a pain killer or something I stop by first aid. Ditto, the plastic bag - with a gift shop at every turn, there are plenty of bags already in there. I don't need to carry one in...

Same here. If my feet are that wet, I'm probably going back to the room for new shoes or to stay out of the rain.

My list on a "normal" park day-

 

smart phone (ziplock bag)

sun hat, gloves, shirt (no sunscreen)

lanyard holding AP

camera

sanitizer

[Beckers 1,136]

I always carry a plastic bag. I almost got thrown up on once on the bus (and not by anyone in my party) and I have been traumatized since and always have an emergency barf bag ready to go.

now THAT is a reason to carry a bag if I've ever heard one. ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww....

flask that fits in said bag

thingy

 

 

What's in the flask?

Unlimited amount of $$$$

 

Drop the sanitizer, we survived 2000+ years without wiping germs off every 5 minutes

 

Camera with extra batteries and memory or film

 

Dry box/bag/something sealable to keep your fragile items dry in the sudden FL downpours

 

Water/juice boxes.  Small items like that they usually allow, especially with kids.  Just don't try to bring in gallon sized jugs.  We've  taken in food items to make sandwiches without anyone stopping us. If you don't feel like bringing in bottled water, Dollar Tree has collapsible soft bottles with sippy tops that seal.  Sort of like the leather wine pouches.  They also carry the little pouches of drink mix made for a typical water bottle.

 

Not sure if they allow camelbacks.

 

Floppy brimmed hat is good for the sun, and rain.

 

Comfortable shoes.  High heels and pointy toes don't cut it.

 

Small pocket sized first aid kit.  Again Dollar Tree or Wal Mart, or make your own.  Few band aids and neosporin/antibacterial lotion.  Cover blisters and minor scrapes.

 

Chap stick

 

If you wear glasses and are going on fast bumpy rides, you may want to look at some type of glasses restraint so they don't fall off.  I lost my glasses in the River Ride at Aquatica, luckily they landed on my feet.

[Beckers 1,136]

We also always carry baby wipes. They are good for other things than wiping bites. Hands, sweaty faces, post Mickey bar clean ups, tables that are sticky, etc.

If you're talking about something like this:

 

 

Then, yes, no problem.

 

These water containers are currently "in" with the young people.  My daughters all have carried them in to the parks.

Camelbacks are a like book bag with a water bladder and a straw that is in the strap.

Hang on, I googled looking for a pic and its coming up what TCD posted.

So that is a camelback

And this is a camelbak

I've seen people with those in the parks too.

 

Why anyone thinks he needs that in a theme park is beyond me, but I've seen them.

 

I guess maybe Camelback makes both of those items?

Looks like autocorrect got me. The book bag is a camelbak with no C.

Yeah I don't know why a themepark goer would need one either.

[Momof6....aka Marty 769]

I think the advantage would be not having to carry a water bottle.  But I would not wear one into a theme park.  I will wear a tiara and a gaudy WW necklace with or without a flamingo on the end, and asd many clothes as I can pile on at 12:30am on a cold night in February, but I would not wear one of those.  I think.

I didn't notice the dropped c either.

 

I wonder if it's two different companies?  That's confusing.  But, it's a great name for a hydration item.

So, it's easier to lug that thing around, and have to take it off so you can sit down in the ride vehicles?

 

I don't see that as being better than carrying a water bottle.

 

Maybe if you filled it with some punch or something.
