Okay - little confused here... For those of you that bring food into the park - do you pack it in your luggage and fly down with it?

Last time we went I packed granola bars, peanuts, goldfish, etc. I brought little baggies to pack for the backpack per day. I figured the room that the snacks were in my suitcase would be quickly replaced with souvenirs on the way home!

we packed some snacks in our check in luggage, but had some delivered too!!

We used WeGoShop, but there are others out there, too!! For $15 plus the cost of the food, we had 2 cases of water, 3 quarts of milk, bread, fresh fruit, string cheese, cookies, plus some other snacks delivered right to our room!

If you are using certain car service (not ME) to get from the airport, some include a 1/2 hour grocery store shop.

We also used a hard sided cooler as part of our checked bags. Since we were staying at a value resort, we didn't have a fridge in our room (you will!) and just replacing the ice every morning and night was enough to keep everything cold. We then used it to transprt our dirty clothes in on the way home, saving hte luggage spce for souveniers.

Best of luck finding what suits you best!
