Really Dumb Question

I know I keep asking and asking and the DCer's just answer and answer... you guys are great...
Here is my newest really dumb questions...
Do I need to bring beach towels with me for the pool and waterparks. Someone told me I should, then someone said to leave them home. I like to take at least one towel with me to the parks too.

HELP!

Re: Really Dumb Question

It's been a while since I've been to one of the water parks, but iirc they do provide them. However, I'm not sure how big they are. If you have a big beach towel that you really like, I don't think there's any harm in bringing it.

As I recall, the bigger issue was finding a lounge chair.

Re: Really Dumb Question

Its purely a matter of preference. The towels you recieve from Disney will be far from the nice thick fluffy kind you may have at home. Choose your poison.

If you are staying at a Disney Resort, towels are provided at the pool.

At TL or BB, you should bring your own. You can rent a towel there but why?

For the waterparks, yes!

Also, there are some wet attractions at the parks so a towel there would be good also.

Re: Really Dumb Question

We always bring our own (for the hotel pool and water parks)...but I'm sure everyone has their preferences.

Re: Really Dumb Question

We use the pool towels, no room to pack our own when we fly. When we go to a water park we grab a couple of pool towels at our resort on our way to the bus. The resort pool towels are the same towels you can rent at the water parks, basically a bath towel size.

Re: Really Dumb Question

We always bring our own too, for the water parks and pool. Nice big beach towels are better than the resort towels, which are the same size as the towels in the rooms.

Oh, so that was you carrying a towel around MK? Were you reading The HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy?

I just shake reall hard - like a dog. OR I'll pick up one from someone's chair and use it.

No big deal.
