food IS a theme park
You might think of us as Disney experts (and we are!) but did you know that we’re also packing experts?
Let’s pack!
We travel all over, from Disneyland and Disney World to Aulani Resort and so much more, so believe us when we say we know how to pack a carry-on bag.
When you visit Disney World, do you have the MUST-HAVES things of what you must pack?
Gen X’ers are going to pack a certain way
For some of us, it’s just making sure we have comfy outfits for each day. For others, there’s a process that includes packing ALL the essentials (okay, that’s us) so we are prepared if we have need of anything during our trip. For Gen X, the packing rules are a little different — we have certain NEEDS and we make sure that we’re going to think of those when we travel.
We go to Disney World all the time, and that means we’ve gotten pretty good at knowing what to pack in our park bags.
We will take a room in the Castle, please!
Winter, early summer, summer, or summer part II (because let’s be honest, there are definitely NOT four seasons in Orlando), we’re ready for the weather, the crowds, and any other park conditions we may need to be prepared for. But we have to level with you — people are going to judge you if you bring certain things with you on vacation.
You know…sometimes we see things, and we kinda wish we could unsee them.
Main Street, U.S.A.
But at the same time, we’re happy we saw it because it means we can un-influence you from it to save you some trouble on your Disney World vacation, OR, on the flip side, it helps us recommend something that will truly make your trip easier. We try a lot of different products around here to see what’s really worth it on your Disney World vacation, and these new shoes…well, these new shoes are a disaster waiting to happen, and we’re begging you not to wear them to the parks.
It looks like the Disney World water parks may be a bit more popular come 2025 with the new ticket offer that Disney has announced!
Blizzard Beach Water Park
Since many of us will likely be going to a Disney World water park for the first time or spending more time there than ever before, we thought we’d create a packing list for you all! [Read more…]
We are in Disney World a lot, so we know a thing or two about what makes a park day run smoothly.
Magic Kingdom
One of the biggest ways that we set ourselves up for success is by packing strategically. A thoughtfully packed park bag has the power to make a trip seamless, so we’re sharing all of the things that we always bring to make our day a little easier. And good news — it all costs less than $100 total!
Have you thought about what you need to pack for a Disney World trip? I mean, really thought about it?
Welcome to Disney World!
The list can get pretty long when you’re thinking about all the travel essentials you’ll need. And, as you know, there are plenty of opportunities to forget those most important things. That really got us thinking. So, we wanted to find out what your thoughts were about something you missed having at Disney World. We asked and boy did you deliver!
If you’re anything like us, when you aren’t at Disney World, there is a 100% chance we’re thinking about Disney World.
Cinderella Castle
When you go to Disney World, there are just some things that you need to have — even if they are kind of embarrassing. You’ll probably want a bag to hold your daily essentials in while in the park, even better if you can find a Disney one on sale. You might be looking for some Minnie ears to complete your Disney look.
We tell you all the time that there are LOTS of things to remember to bring to Disney World.
Welcome to Disney World!
Some of these items are newer essentials that we just started bringing ourselves, while others have been tried and true essentials for years. But let’s be honest, some of these essentials are a little embarrassing. That doesn’t mean you don’t need them though, so here are 12 slightly embarrassing items you very likely may need in the parks.
It’s cruisin’ time!
Disney Magic
There are SO many things to consider and learn. Where do you want to cruise? Which ship should you choose? What about excursions or on-ship entertainment? What should you pack? It’s a lot!
