bag situation

[nic3]

This is probably a typical girl question to ask, but is ok to take a small bag with you when walking round the parks. I was just worried it would get in the way when going on the rides etc and wouldnt like to leave it on the side?? But I would need one to carry camera and money etc.

What have other people done??

There is no problems with bags in the parks, as long as you are willing to have it searched om entry.

Take one which is easy to carry as they become cumbersome! I known it is a bit naff these days, but something like a bumbag or a small shoulder bag. I let Mr CDV carry the rucksack with all our stuff in it....ok my stuff!!There are lockers to.

Give them to my husband!!! He won't go on the rides..... I hold the bags for the rides he wants to go on, as they don't interest me - perfect partnership!

I agree that a bumbag or "fanny pack" as the Americans call them is the best idea, ok so they're not the height of fashion ( but probably considered fashionable in the parks as everone has them!!) but mine fits my money, passport, camera and a small tube of sun lotion. You don't need to remove them on the rides, if there is a lap bar they sit easily over the top.

sounds like a match made in heaven.

Unfortunatley its only me and my boyfriend going, and we will both be on the rides.....other people must take bags with them so im sure we will manage some how

I don't bother with a bag anymore. My husband has money etc. in his wallet, and anything else in his pocket!!! We always travel light to the Parks The only thing that we carry is our bottle of water.

I have a small back pack that we use for cameras, water etc. On most rides I just put it on the floor with my foot through the strap, but I would recommed putting your bag inside a plastic carrier bag if you go onto any water rides, the last think you want is a wet camera. We also have a bigger back pack that we put in a luggage locker, in this we usuall have more water, dry socks & underwear because if you go on the water rides you get soaked and walking around in wet pants and socks isn't very nice - believe me! We usually have fruit and snacks too and just go back to the locker at lunch time. Normally we just take it in turns to carry the back pack and dont really find it a problem. All the parks have lockers so if you do find you get fed up carrying things around its easy enough to store it away in a locker. Have fun!
