From: Peppermint Patty on 7 Jun 2010 15:29 DD Amy and I will be making the trek in December with little DGD (dear granddaughter) Sara in tow who will be 11 months old. Should we rent a car to hit Walmart for diapers and all baby needs? Take a cab? Buy stuff here and have it shipped down before we get there? What's the best way to deal with this? What would you all advise?

What would you all advise? When we took our (then) 15 month old grandson, we loaded a suitcase with diapers and other child care "stuff". Naturally, as the diapers were disposed of during the week, it left room for souvenirs on the return trip. If you want to head out for a shopping trip while there, I've found renting a compact for a day is reasonable (I rented at the National at the Dolphin for $28). That's less than a round-trip taxi.

That's less than a round-trip taxi. That's what I wanted to know, Steve! Thanks so much. I think I'll call when we get there. The care care center will pick us up at our resort.

Filled a suitcase with diapers, wipes, baby food jars. Did get the disposable bibs (Bibsters) to have less washing. As we depleted the diapers we had lots of room for goodies to take home.

You could also send a crate or so of baby stuff via UPS to the resort and then just have it brought to your room. Might be cheaper than the 25 bucks for a checked bag and you don't have to tote it anywhere. Or the Postal Service might work. But an empty bag at Disney does get filled. Lisa |
