We are heading to Disney in a few weeks, and are planning to go spend a day exploring Islands of Adventure. I've been reading up on touring plans, etc, since we will only have one day and it will likely be very crowded.

I keep seeing mention of lockers, and how guests aren't allowed to carry bags of any kind on rides. At WDW, my small packback is never a problem . . . I can wrap it around my foot and secure it, or some rides have a pouch to shove it in.

Can someone tell me what to expect at Universal? If the backpack/locker thing is going to be a pain and slow us down, then perhaps I need to change my strategy.

Thanks!
