Car parking at the parks
What do other dibbers do to remember where they parked their car
We always take a picture with the phone as a reminder

Just do what all Americans do... Beep the car horn using the key fob and let it ring out for 20 mins... and then work out which on of the thousand cars beeping is yours Its like a national past time of futility
Special points for timing it for someone pushing a sleeping child in a push chair past your car and then watching the unfolding scene of horror, screaming and madness... Edited at 05:31 PM. |

Relaxing at the Grand Floridian

We take note of where it is, then take a photo on one of the phones, because several park hours later the memory is gone

If you have your phone many of them have a facility to record the GPS co-ord of your car when you get out. This works well if you link the bluetooth to the car. Or just make a note of the row and estimate of how far down you are. Always have photo the car plate anyway just in case it gets stolen.

We have always taken a photo of the row marking. Pre phone we did it on our camera.

Take a photo on everyone’s phone because phone batteries die. Better. Write it down as well. The memory of have zero bloody clue where our rental car was in Epcot at closing 7 years ago will never leave me 🙄

We also take a picture now, although our DD has a fantastic memory ( we once had a cast member offer to write down dome fastpass times for us and couldn't believe it when my daughter said it was fine she would remember it )
I remember the days of a pen and paper LOL Rob |

We threw caution to the wind and didn't take pictures / write down any of our car locations.
We had a few worrying moments when faced with the car park, but always found it fairly quickly

I used to be the one to remember when on a family holiday. Now still do it with a rhyme or saying which you try and re-remember the rhyme or saying at the end of the day.
My parents went on a road trip a few years ago without me and then at the end of the day as i wasn't there couldn't remember where they had parked the car! Had to ask for help and about 30 minutes later they tracked it down. |

At the parks we make a note or photo of the lot and row number (and to be fair, I can usually remember that anyway). We came unstuck and temporarily "misplaced" our car in the car park at AKL a couple of weeks ago though, as there were no such helpful row numbers! Fortunately we remembered roughly how far down the row it was, and only had to search a few rows until we rediscovered it!
