Now you've purchased the tickets, you've booked the travel as well as the hotel, now all you have to think about is packing. "But wait. Just what items do I need to take to a theme park?" I overhear you wonder.
Outlined below I will give you the most important 10 items that you should take to the parks with you.
Sun Block - This is probably the most vital item to keep in mind! Orlando will get fairly darn hot, even in the Winter season. Although the sun isn't shining, you can actually still get sunburnt through clouds. Take it!
Water - To bring a reusable bottle of water (or just about any fluid for that matter) will be an absolute lifesaver during those very hot days. When you've consumed it all, you can go to a nearby drinking fountain and refill it to reuse it over and over again.
Camera - You might be astonished at the number of people that actually fail to remember their camera. Of course nearly all the parks have photographers (that charge huge prices for photos) but in case you want to shoot your own personal photographic memories, do not forget that camera! There are often signs pointing out the character fun spot of the park.
Walking Shoes - Consider just how many miles you will end up trekking in one day at the parks. You may forget how much you really travel, probably because you will be having too much fun! However wearing uncomfortable sneakers can cause your feet to get blisters. And that could totally ruin your day.
Cash - Or maybe just a credit card. You will definitely need to have a bit of credit with you. You will find a heck of a lot of shopping to be done. Wouldn't it be a shame if you forgot a way to pay for it? The things that you can purchase in the Orlando theme parks are different from typical theme parks. A lot of parks have a lot of garbage that you simply shouldn't buy! But at the Orlando theme parks (particularly EPCOT) you can get a lot of really neat gifts.
Often while visiting EPCOT I have watched someone try to buy something. They would hand over their unsigned credit card and have it denied. Currently Disney have a rule that says they can't take unsigned credit cards without an ID (a drivers license or passport). Also if you would like to drink any alcoholic beverages (and are over twenty one) you will need proof of your age. Especially when "drinking around the countries" at EPCOT.
