Tip For Always Finding Where You Park at WDW

Are you always afraid that you forget where you park your vehicle that day when you visit a Disney theme park? Are you too lazy to fumble with a pen and paper, or fiddling with your smartphone to write down "Dinosaur 38"? Well here's a simple solution to your problem.

Almost everyone goes to a Disney theme park with a digital camera, or a phone that can snap pictures. So instead of writing down or trying to memorize where you park, why not just snap a picture of the name and number of your parking row?

Then at the end of the day, while you're waiting for the tram, simply scroll through the pictures you took for the day and voila! You know where you parked!

Zz.

That's a great tip. You can also text yourself or someone else.

I have done both--usually at airports--and they're great tactics! (This is especially helpful if you have a rental car and are always forgetting exactly what it looks like.)

I make a new word out of my parking spot. One year at kings island I parked in "Scooby 5" and Made up "Scoobafied!" and walked around all day saying it. Only problem is it's 12 years later and I still remember where I parked.

What's even worse is now *I* know where you parked too! silly

At least "scoobified" is fun to say, since now it's part of my vocabulary.

Whoops. I had missed this post and now it's stuck in my head too. I will consider myself "Scoobified."

Ha!! I'm gonna walk around saying it now, too.

I wonder what it means to be Scoobified. Good? Bad?

Thats easy. Scoobified - The state of being over saturated by Scooby Doo.

As In, last time I went to Kings Island I Bought a Scooby Hat, Scooby T-Shirt, Ate Scooby Snacks and rode Scooby's Haunted Castle 13 Times in a row. Now im feeling very Scoobified.

Also See - Mickified.

When Kings Island had Hanna Barberra Land there was a cookie you could get that was called a Scooby Snack. Unfortunately since then the whole area has been rethemed to Nickelodeon So now they have Crabby Snacks.

Is that a Spongebob thing? (I've never watched it, but as far as I can tell that's what's on Nickelodeon now...I miss Pinwheel)

Yep it's Spongebob. Pinwheel? I remember that show. I think it was on after Eureka's Castle.

Pinwheel ruled! It was like 5 hours long and they just got whatever random foreign/weird children's programming they could and stuffed it all together with little puppet sections in between. Now that I think about it, it was a total Sesame Street rip-off, but whatever!

I've done some info searching:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinwheel_(TV_series)

It lasted until 89 and was the original show on Nickelodeon. Nickelodeon was in fact originally called Pinwheel! But I think we've gone a bit off topic.

Pinwheel was a product of too much drug use in the 70's, IMHO! Sesame Street had a theme at least. wink

Getting back on topic, another thing I like to do to remember where I parked is rely on DW to remember where I parked silly
