As someone who visits Disney and Orlando\u00a0theme parks in July, I am often asked WHY I continue to go to theme parks in the heat of an Orlando summer and how come I do it year after year despite\u00a0 the miserable combination of heat, humidity and high chances of rain and an the ensuing sauna after the rain stops.\u00a0 Well, after seeing many miserable people in the parks this week I’m going to share some of my secrets and tips for making it through a day of theme park touring.\u00a0 Below is a photo of what gets me through these July trips:<\/p>\n

Summer Theme Park Survival Gear<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n

First thing to consider is whether or not you can\u00a0deal with\u00a0the heat and being out all day.\u00a0 If not, you need to adjust your park touring to what you can handle.\u00a0 I often hit the parks first thing in the morning and am in there until noon or 1pm and then I\u00a0hide somewhere cool until after 4pm when the sun starts to go down.\u00a0 Its easy to do when you stay in a Disney resort, so consider the convenience of a cool and air conditioned Disney bus being the chariot back to your Disney hotel. \u00a0\u00a0Even when I have a car at Disney I usually always take a bus, especially in the heat of the summer or during very crowded time periods.\u00a0 \u00a0We don’t start early in the morning\u00a0for the entire trip, and will do some sleeping in, \u00a0but typically I am in parks for at least 7+ hours a day, every day.\u00a0 (No, I am not a pool or resort person except for when I have to go back to the room to work and then\u00a0the teenager\u00a0has the option of doing the pool but usually sits in the air conditioned room.)<\/p>\n

Comfort is pretty important–but that does not necessarily mean skimpy clothing.\u00a0 Covering your shoulders really cuts down on sunburn, so a loose t-shirt works pretty well. \u00a0Hats are important to some people.\u00a0 I am not a “hat person” so I change the part in my hair to cut down on the sunburned scalp somewhat, and use hair product with SPF.\u00a0 Comfy shorts or short pants\/capris\u00a0 in a breathable fabric make you more comfortable too.\u00a0 Athletic clothing that wicks moisture can be beneficial.\u00a0 Cargo shorts are loose and comfy and have the benefits of lots of pockets too.<\/p>\n

\"Not
Not too stylish, but comfortable for theme parks with loose fitting t-shirt, loose shorts, and sneakers with socks. He also gets points for standing out in a crowd.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

As for footwear. this is not a good time of year for fashionable stilettos or wedges–although I have seen these in the parks this week (with swollen feet in them too.)\u00a0 While you may not want to wear sneakers or tennis shoes, flip-flops from the dollar store aren’t going to protect your feet much from sweltering pavement.\u00a0\u00a0 I have large feet (for a woman) so I generally wear ugly Croc clogs in the parks.\u00a0 Any shoe that takes water without getting squishy\u00a0is going to make your life more comfortable in the summer because you can’t predict thunderstorms and water rides in the parks can soak your feet pretty quickly, and to me there are few things worse than soggy sneakers!\u00a0 I rotate the Crocs clogs with some athletic sandals, and will do sneakers in the evening or when I must do a park for 10+ hours for some reason or am on a tour.<\/p>\n

Speaking of water and weather, a rain poncho is a must due to\u00a0the pop-up storms that dump a large amount of rain in a short period of time.\u00a0 I use the ones sold in the parks as I’ve had good luck with them lasting quite a while.\u00a0 You can get inexpensive camping ponchos sold for about a dollar, but they don’t last very long and are a problem to re-use.\u00a0 I’ve found a Disney poncho lasts about two years and they fold pretty well and can be stuffed in a backpack.<\/p>\n

So lets say you’ve been in the parks for a while, and notice some blisters on your feet.\u00a0 Some products I use personally are a liquid bandage (such as New Skin) and athletic tape to wrap a toe or two. I picked up these tricks from teenage athletes who can’t quit their team because of something like a blister or banged up toe. \u00a0\u00a0Usually I have problems with blisters on my little toes and this week I\u00a0 wrapped one toe with tape and it still has no blister after six days of theme parks.\u00a0 The toe on the other foot ended up with a huge blister after three days and I had to break out the New Skin to cover it, and I’m taping over the blister too as its pretty raw and ugly.\u00a0 Athletic \u00a0tape and New Skin are now a permanent part of my luggage and my morning routine includes wrapping my little toes before heading out to parks.<\/p>\n

Among the most important things to consider are sunscreen and water. If you need water and do not want to buy a bottle in the parks, simply go to any Quick Service location and ask for a cup of ice water.\u00a0 You’re going to sweat a lot in the parks in the summer months and replacing that lost fluid is going to be imperative or you may suffer heat exhaustion.\u00a0 I have allergies to sunscreens and have found that my face does not break out when I use titanium dioxide and zinc oxide base sunscreen products; on my body I can use just about anything without a problem.<\/p>\n

Another part of my Disney theme park survival kit is my phone charger.\u00a0 Disney is now wi-fi enabled and I’ve had no problems staying connected to their network with my phone.\u00a0 It does mean that I need to keep a power cord in case I need to charge the battery. My new phone lasts about 5 hours with constant use; if I’m not playing with apps or constantly checking wait times \u00a0I can get 10 hours on one charge. But since my phone is my lifeline for work the cord goes with me.\u00a0 You can usually find a cool place to sit while charging your device if you don’t want to leave the park but want to take a break.<\/p>\n

These are my tips for summer park touring.\u00a0 Do you have anything that works for you?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
