|  Tips for First Timers Okay, so I think we are almost ready to go. Atleast I hope so as it is coming up fast and I AM SO EXCITED ! ! ! ! Is there anything extra I should bring or know. I just learned about the penny and quarter thing. I like to be as prepared as possible and I know without all the help I have received from all of you, I would be lost. Please give me all your tips, secrets and last minute musts! Thanks All !

| You don't have long  For your packing my advice...remember sunscreen, antibacterial wipes (tables/hands), water, batteries/film for your camera, bandaids (blisters), and some light snacks. Just take your time and enjoy the parks...take in all of the Disney magic there is around you. Find a pace that works well for ya'll. I remember our first trip and I still carry all the memories we created on that first trip with me...that is what makes me go back as often as possible.

|  Do you actually have a passporter? They have a wonderful checklist in there on things to take. It's even broken down by what to take period, what to carry with you, etc. We don't do everything on it for our family, but it'll really help! And I'd second everyone else on drinking lots of water and taking breaks, relax, enjoy your first time, and make tons of memories! Enjoy!! Ruth

| Stay hydrated, take breaks in the shade whenever possible, and take advantage of the hotel pool if at all possible after 2:00 pm to avoid that hot Florida sun at peak.

| My first and only tip: Realize you WON'T see everything. You can't...won't happen! In fact, we still haven't seen everything even after five trips. Even odder, my nephew went with us on our last trip and actually has done something we still haven't (Flights of Wonder with another Aunt on the trip!) Once you realize that, you'll find a pace that will work for you and you'll be fine!
