In an effort to take advantage of the lower crowds of September, I will be going to WDW shortly after Labor Day that month, to AK and MK (it’ll be a full week after Labor Day by the time I do Magic Kingdom). However, I know why it’s so uncrowded at that point- the hurricane dice roll, and the *heat*.
For context, I am a 30yo adult male, and my father (the other person who will be there) is in his early 60s. We are both in good cardio health.
Here’s what I plan to wear:
- Menthol-infused compression stockings (haven’t decided on white or black)
- Gym shorts (so the compression stockings don’t look dorky in the photos)
- Breathable UVS shirt- possibly even long sleeved to avoid skin damage. But it might just be too hot.
- Broad-rimmed fishing hat
- Polarized sunglasses
Should I sling a cooling rag over my neck? What about bringing my own water bottle? My understanding is that we can get water from the quick service stations, and that would be preferable to figuring out what to do with the water bottles on every ride. However I don’t want to be a nuisance to the quick service people, getting free water (then again, I suppose they get paid the same either way).
Beyond the issue of what to bring, is it feasible to seek shelter and try to be indoors as much as possible? I think that the lower crowds might afford me that possibility, but I can’t be sure.
