Laundry?

We sure don't - vacation means no laundry and overpacking! LOL!

Depends on the length of the visit. If we are there more than four or five days, I HAVE to do laundry. We don't own that many clothes!

I'll pack seven pairs of shorts and ten shirts before I do a lick of laundry on vacation.

No laundry on vacation for me! I suppose if I was overseas for more than a week, but that's about it. Maybe I should go to Disneyland Paris to give it a try!
Drop another coin in slot and I will tell you more.

My wife and I have done laundry at both the Polynesian Resort and while on the Disney Cruise. Sometimes you just gotta wash your bathing suit.... why not throw in a few other things?

You only have 5 days of clothes? That's crazy. I can go at least two weeks if I took my wardrobe :)

The only time we do is when we stay at one of the "Home Away From Home" resorts, because the washer/dryer is in your room.

I've never been there that long - at most has always been 3 days for me. So I take more than enough underclothing..... but like you, I don't have that many clothing, so it's one per day plus one extra in case I get wet.... ;)
Thank you, Walt, for making animation what it is today.

I've done laundry there before. Only while staying in Ft. Wilderness and in the Contemporary. It's not so bad if you are only doing one load... I usually do my swim suits and beach towels (Yes... I bring my own beach towels.. they are BIG & Fluffy!) and any clothing that I may buy there (gotta wash it before you wear it!). But I agree with Sockfire... Why not throw in a few other things.

Well that is a whole new game there - I stayed at Saratoga Springs in Jaunary 2006 and our one bedroom unit had laundry machines in the room - we did do laundry every night before we hit the sack - that was convenient and not such a big deal.

Regarding swimsuits...

Don't you folks shower after you get out of the pool? I always do, and I shower with my swimsuit. That's how it gets clean. What's with you folks using the washer at hotels for that? You're all fired!

Okayyyyyyyy......... I find that a washing machine can do a better job at washing the chlorine out of my swimsuit than I can. :p

I do the same thing at home, on vacation, at the gym - works great!
