Can you wear sandals on rides at Disney?

Nearly all of the rides at Disney World do not require closed-toe shoes. However, before you invest in some adorable flip-flops, you need to keep in mind that there is a strap between your toes, which may chafe your feet over time and distance when you're walking around Disney Springs or on a water ride.
