Another Disney Stroller Question
We are leaving for Disney on Saturday. We decided we are not taking our double stroller because it's too heavy and bulky.
We are bringing our lightweight single stroller for Kaydyn, but our dilemma is what stroller to bring for Ainsley.
We were going to borrow my ILs lightweight stroller but Ainsley doesn't sit up well at all so she'll basically have to recline the whole time. So we were going to bring the Snap and Go since we have so much stuff it will be easier to lug through the airport. But I'm not sure if she'll get annoyed/uncomfortable sitting in her car seat the whole trip.
We have a ton of stuff we're bringing....2 car seats, 2 strollers, 2 suitcases, 2 kids, and 3 carry ons. If we bring a lightweight stroller for Ainsley then we have to worry about carrying her car seat as opposed to it being in the Snap and Go.
WWYD? 2 lightweight strollers or one stroller and Snap and Go?

Re: Another Disney Stroller Question
If you are not bringing the double stroller and you are bringing an infant carseat. Then bring a stroller and a snap and go.
Whatever you choose, make sure you have a huge basket to store things in. You will need it for the park. Bottles, snacks, diapers, wipes. You cannot go to your hotel everytime you need a diaper or snack. I am not sure if they reopened the baby changing station in magic Kingdom. It had some supplies there.

Re: Another Disney Stroller Question
I would bring a lightweight stroller are you sure you can't do the double? We were there in Mid May and it was upper 80's lower 90s everyday. We brought our City Mini - the girls were sweating in it. I don't think I would bring a baby in their infant seat (since you said snap n go) only b.c they sweat in those seats - and the few parents I saw using it all had big fans in at the feet of the snap n go's and their kids still looked very hot and sweaty and many parents were saying they had to leave b.c it was too hot for their children. Even though it is more to carry I would go with whatever is the coolest option.

ITA!! We went twice this year and actually found it easier with our double stroller vs. 2 singles

We have a Graco Quattro Tour and it is extremely heavy and doesn't fold up very compactly. It would be a pain bringing it on and off the buses and the trams.
I think I might just bring the two lightweight strollers and deal with carrying the infant seat through the airport.
We actually plan on going to the parks in the AM, going back to Old Key West in the afternoon, then back to the parks at night. We've been there a ton so I'm not worried about not seeing everything. Plus we did the Give a Day, Get a Day volunteer thing and they will give you fastpasses instead of a day at the park if you already have park tickets.

That is definitely what we did as well - we went mornings until about 12 then back around 5 - it was still VERY hot. I think it is smart to do the 2 lightweight strollers - can you rig something like a strap to the infant seat so you can carry it on your back or over your shoulder?
