2 Things You NEED To Do Before Your Next Disney Trip — 2 Foolish Mortals

Ok. . . . this is the part of the discussion where I tell you that I’m not a medical professional and everything I say here should be taken as nothing more than advice; maybe stories of what has worked for me. Got it? With that out of the way. . . . .

While opinions vary as to when exactly you should start to hydrate and with what, the real thing you’re trying to do when you start hydrating no less than a week before your visit to Walt Disney World is establish a habit. Rather than waiting until you arrive at your vacation destination, spend at least a week leading up to your trip taking swigs of your water bottle and refilling it multiple times a day. This will get you into the rhythm of staying hydrated before it becomes a true necessity and you’ll find it’s not as much of a production while you’re at Disney.

Side Note: It can also be really useful to decide on a water bottle that works best for you. I realize that this might sound silly, but if you have a bottle you’ll need to fuss with regularly then you’re less likely to drink as frequently. If you have a bottle you enjoy using and can carry easily. . . . . more likely to hydrate. Simply? Yes. Effective? Totally!

These 2 things might be simple, but they are very effective. This is especially the case if I’m traveling during the winter months, when I’m more sedentary and less likely to suck on a water bottle for most of my day, and when I’m traveling in the throws of summer. Of course, I’d love to know your thoughts and what works best for you. Is there anything that you think I should have included in this list? Let us know all about it by joining the jamboree! See you there!
