When traveling to central Florida, you can certainly expect warm, sunny temperatures throughout most of the year.  And travelers should keep that in mind when packing for a trip to Orlando – particularly during the summer months.  When packing, don’t forget the key essentials like sunscreen, sunglasses and a hat.   It’s wise to always bring along a refillable water bottle.  Florida’s heat and humidity can quickly cause heat stress and dehydration.  Throughout the day, make sure to drink plenty of water and non-carbonated drinks, even if you do not feel thirsty. It’s also wise to be careful in Florida’s hot sun.  Limit your time in the sun and avoid exposure during the hottest hours of the sun’s rays.  The major theme parks typically offer lots of areas and attractions to help you escape the sun.  But be sure to apply ample amounts of sunscreen, paying special attention to the face, nose, ears and shoulders.  Don’t get fooled into thinking you can’t get sunburned when it is cloudy.
