<\/a>The past couple of days arctic cold has been rushing through the country.\u00a0 It’s been so frigid everywhere, yep, even in Florida, with lows dipping into the 30s!\u00a0 (Somebody go find Elsa please and help change this winter back to summer). \u00a0While most people know how to better handle the heat in Florida, oftentimes, people forget about the cold.\u00a0 Trust me, it can be quite difficult to navigate the parks when it’s this chilly out.<\/p>\n
My first piece of advice is the most obvious.\u00a0 Make sure to bundle up in layers.\u00a0 This is especially true if you aren’t going to be returning back to your hotel before night sets in.\u00a0 The layers will be key because they will keep you warmer.\u00a0 Then, if by chance you do end up getting too warm, you can just take a layer off and put it in a bag.\u00a0 (PS: make sure to bring a bag). \u00a0Then when it does get cold again, you can quickly remedy it.\u00a0 I usually bring a hoodie that I can wear on top of my many layers.\u00a0 That way I don’t need to wear a big, bulky coat, but I am still protected from the frigid temps.<\/p>\n
Also, you really want to consider bringing scarves and gloves (And maybe a hat too.\u00a0 Gotta keep those ears warm!). \u00a0Having these items with you is critical because there is nothing worse than being down there and realizing you really need them and then have to pay Disney prices for something that you already own \u00a0(Unless, of course, you want to bring those items back as a souvenir!).<\/p>\n I can’t tell you how important it is to be prepared.\u00a0 When I visited Disneyland a few summers ago, I thought, oh…it’s summer…a dress will be fine.\u00a0 That is until the evening started to hit.\u00a0 Then, I was the one guilty of buying a sweatshirt, since I absolutely didn’t know that it gets cold in California in the summer.<\/p>\n Something else I like to suggest is to bring those hand warmers that you shake up and then can wear in your gloves or other places.\u00a0 Seriously, those suckers are amazing!\u00a0 One of the best inventions ever!\u00a0 These have helped me in situations both at Walt Disney World and at home.\u00a0 Such a lifesaver!<\/p>\n For those with kids, especially of the younger set, don’t forget to keep them warm too.\u00a0 Consider bringing a little fleece blanket with you to keep them warm.\u00a0 You can bundle them up when they are in a stroller and keep them content.\u00a0 Also, this way they (or even you) can try to cuddle up in it while you’re waiting for a parade or a fireworks show.<\/p>\n<\/a>
