So when I got invited to Universal as a Travel Agent, it was a last-minute trip and if you know me, I’m a planner, I usually start planning a trip months before, making lists, gathering items, etc. With COVID, this was my first plane ride in over a year, so add, hand sanitizer and wipes to the list.
Since there were only two of us, it was easier to plan and pack, and going to amusement parks as a child and as a mom, there was one item I knew we had to bring…the rain poncho.
For $1.16 at Walmart friends, it is such a versatile item to have with you on your vacation.
First of all, going to Orlando, you get that daily afternoon rainstorm that rolls in and rolls out just as fast. But when it rains, it pours. So the poncho comes in so handy.
Besides a rainstorm, going on a ride where they promise you will get soaked like Jurassic Park River Adventure or Disney’s Splash Mountain, you can simply pull out your trusty poncho and ride and not get wet. Simply toss it away when you are done.
I remember putting it on the seat of a ride before I sat down on a ride as well, so my bottom didn’t get wet.
I’m telling you bringing the rain poncho with you is worth it’s weight in gold.
