Re: \"Beat the Heat\" Tips

Our last WDW adventure was in late April and with temps and humidity at 100 degrees. We had three keys to keeping cool and protected from the sun. We found this great sunscreen at REI called Gator that was 40 spf and water resistent. After 11 days at spent all over WDW we returned home with not even a tan line the sunscreen was so effective! The second tool we had were camelbaks. These come in all sizes. We fill the water pouch the night before and put it in the room fridge so it is nice and cold the next day. The carriers are insulated so the water stays real cold for hours. We tend to drink more than if carrying a water bottle and it is easier. If you empty the pouch, you can fill it up at any water fountain. Finally, make sure you also wear a hat, that makes a big difference too.
