I'm also trying to "learn" those words so that I can identify them on the menu. I'm ready for the German at this point...not so much the others.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02647177337471831598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235870075007669222.post-42490025359085090682012-04-27T17:16:49.506-04:002012-04-27T17:16:49.506-04:00@ Steph ~ We went to the luau at the Polynesian C...@ Steph ~ We went to the luau at the Polynesian Cultural Center on Oahu, and I wouldn't recommend it. The food was from a buffet and it was overcooked. The dancing was mediocre, because they split their shows into two different ones and save the best dancing for the late-night show (without food). I have a friend from Hawaii who recommended Germaine's luau, but that was based on the caliber of the dancing :) Have a great time!VintageMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04545128418933344478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235870075007669222.post-79969682202822191752012-04-27T15:06:01.456-04:002012-04-27T15:06:01.456-04:00We did a week at Disney and 3 weeks in Costa Rica....We did a week at Disney and 3 weeks in Costa Rica. I am guten/dairy/nightshade free. I took a few small packs each of my fav crackers, cereal and healthysnacks. I ate lots of salad, fish, fruit, stirfries, rice and used my own supplies when needed. Costa Rican food is good for g.f. people but I use the same strategy when we're doing 1- and 2-week car trips here. I find restaurants are pretty accommodating with serving plain rice, meat, fish etc and they usually can come up with some lemon juice for flavour. Although it isn't always exciting atleast I feel ok afterward!Christienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235870075007669222.post-45051665941300840652012-04-27T14:15:58.346-04:002012-04-27T14:15:58.346-04:00This is very timely as I am going to Hawaii in a c...This is very timely as I am going to Hawaii in a couple weeks. We aren't staying at a resort and we have cooking facilities so I'll prepare much of our food. Can I ask which Luau you went to, if you ate the food and did you enjoy it? <br /><br />Thanks!Stephnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-235870075007669222.post-64372961257640789082012-04-27T00:00:04.162-04:002012-04-27T00:00:04.162-04:00Hi Lisa and welcome back!

Everything thus far has been in driving distance, and I always pack a TON of food.<br /><br />But your post here really hit home because I am traveling to New York in May with my daughter and I can't help but worry about the food situation. Primarily I'm worried about getting a Crohn's flare up or something while I'm there. There is NO way I can eat a strict SCD diet while I'm way. But I'll do my best. <br /><br />One thing I am doing in preparation for this trip is researching and locating health food stores and restaurants. <br /><br />It's a tough one. <br /><br />I'm so glad you are all back safe and I trust you had a great time. I can 100% relate and understand about the bloat and discomfort. It's terrible. Hope everyone is feeling well Lisa!!<br /><br />Hugs,<br />-AmberAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
