Sick on vacation?

Vacations are planned to be perfect.  No one gets sick on vacation right?  Wrong.  Unfortunately all the sightseeing, getting up early, staying up late, going from the heat outside to the air conditioning inside, airplane rides, germs everywhere, and more it's not uncommon for someone to get sick. 

My daughter was on her second trip to Disney at 18-months-old.  It was really hot for September and she was used to two solid naps during the day and we only went back to the room once for nap on vacation.  On night 5 of 7, she was up all night and I slept with her rubbing her back from all the congestion.  It was just a cold but she was miserable.  We were all exhausted from not sleeping.  After napping almost all morning, we decided to go back to Magic Kingdom for a family picture by the castle as we hadn't done that yet and go back to the resort.  Here is our poor little baby not feeling great...

We decided to go into the First Aid Station which is located right by the Baby Care Center (between Casey's Corner and Crystal Palace before the castle) to see if they had any saline spray or something to help her feel better.  They didn't have anything we could use for her cold but they gave us information on a delivery pharmacy that could help.

We ordered a nasal aspirator and saline spray for children and they delivered it within 2 hours.  Apparently if you call the front desk of any Disney resort they can give you their number as well.  We paid probably around $15 for both....but by that night, Taylor was feeling much better and it was well worth it.  By the time we ordered it, took a few pictures, had a late lunch, and walked back to the resort (we stayed at Bay Lake Towers that visit) it was waiting for us at the front desk!  They were very nice and easy to order from as well.  *Please note, I am not affliliated or paid by Turner Drugs. 

Also, obviously if you have a car there are several pharmacies offsite.  Several are located along International Drive.
