Packing for the Magical Place

If you are anything like myself, packing for a long vacation can really make your head hurt. Packing for a magical vacation, can send you right over the edge!!!! I have found some things that really help me when I travel to Disney, and packing tips I will pass along to you. I begin this mind boggling process by gathering various sizes of zip lock bags. I used to use the Wal Mart brand, however they really do not work well since the packaging changed. I would rather pay just a little more and know that my shampoo and other runny products will not get all over my clothing. I am way to OCD for my own good!!!

Everyone always asks me about the weather at Disney World . I always respond,  "What time of the year are you going?"

I do not like the heat!!! Don't get me wrong Disney is great, but the heat is awful!!!!!! I like to travel to "The World" in late fall and winter. I love the decorations and the weather is most pleasant. Also this is the time of year Disney offers a special called the Free Dining Plan . If you are traveling to the Orlando area in the next few weeks, I recommend layers. You may be in your swim suite at 12:00 noon and in a hat and gloves by 9:00pm. That is the magic of Disney for you.
