Originally Posted By mrspotts Laurisk, I think you could use a Frio pouch: it will keep your insulin cold without ice, and is very portable. You dip the pouch in water, squeeze out the excess, and then it cools for up to 3 or 4 days without refreshing. We use these every time we travel. You can buy them in multiple places, but try this link: www.medicool.com It's a one-time investment, but they last for years (indefinitely, I think.) Let me know if you have other D-related questions with regard to Disneyland!
