    Unhappy Going back to car at theme parks

    Hi

    I know that the theme parks are huge in Florida so am presuming its not possible to leave things in the car and go back at lunchtime to collect them etc

    Just thinking of when we go to themeparks here in the Uk and its easy to nip back to your car during the day

    Is it easier to just hire a locker for the day and leave everything in that?

    Thanks
    Nadim

    I think that without a doubt it would be easier to hire a locker. I'd reckon on getting to the car park and back taking easily about an hour, dependent on where you are in the park. You might get lucky at Disney with the car park trams and for it to take less, but I wouldn't count on it, the car parks are mammoth!!

    I think the only park where this would be easy is Seaworld or the waterparks.

    Magic Kingdom round trip to the car park is about 50 minutes.... I did this a few years back ,when we got caught in some rain. We'd left the rain gear in the car, so i made the trip... when i got back, there was the kids and wife, soaked to the skin with big grins on their face's and loving it......

    Epcot isn't usually too bad to get back to the car.

    Hi

    Well I never thought of leaving the kids in the car, but actually that's a good tip!

    I was thinking change of clothes for the kids, food etc, however I have decided to take the things in with us, most UK theme parks it takes about 5 minutes to get to the car so was not expecting 50 mins!

    regards
    Nadim
