Anti-chafing cream, blister patches, pain relievers, foot soak- Stay hydrated. Bring electrolyte packets, cooling towels, sunscreen, bug spray, handheld fans, hats. - In the parks, you take breaks before the pain starts, sit when possible, take planned breaks, do stretching exercises, go back to the resort midday to regroup Remember, comfort is not weakness. Don’t be ashamed to get a scooter if you need it. Most importantly, enjoy the Magic ✨
