    I'm confused. One response to the cooler questions says that a soft-sided cooler is okay. But, on the park's site, it says no coolers. So, I just wonder if I bring an over the shoulder type cooler with sandwiches & H20 if I'll be asked to dump it?

    The exact page of the WDW website that discusses coolers can be found HERE, near the bottom of the page.

    The website states that:

    Suitcases, coolers or backpacks with or without wheels larger than 24" (61 cm) long x 15" (38 cm) wide x 18" (46 cm) high are not permitted in the parks. (Coolers required for medication may be stored in a locker or at Guest Relations.)

    So, as long as your cooler is smaller than 24" X 15" X 18", you'll be fine bringing it with you. Most soft-sided coolers that I've seen fit within those dimensions. If you absolutely felt like to needed to bring more into the park with you, you could bring your food in two small coolers, carried in by different people. This would also be fine.

    Have a great trip!
