Hi-
We are shortly heading to disney world with our family which consists of me and DH and 3 little children ( age 2 and under). My SIL is coming with us. Both my DH and my SIL are visually impaired. DH's impairment is not obvious to the world- SIL's is (she uses a cane.)
In general we avoid eating at buffets b/c DH can't see the food (and is sort of a picky eater) and with the kids it is just too challenging. But it seems like a lot of disney is buffets. We currently have reservations for Mickey's bbq- which is a buffet. I am envisioning myself making 4 trips through the line to get food for myself; DH; SIL; and Kids. And then again if anyone wants seconds.
It occurred to me while reading through this forum that maybe we could ask for assistance? I'm not sure if we could or if we would get it--- we don't 'need' it in the sense that we have a path for everyone to eat--- it just means that I make 4 trips. DH in general is very resistent to ever asking for any help-- SIL tends to be much more open to help (and she has more significant needs).
If a GAC card would help- is there a way to get them from the resort or before we get there- or do we have to get them once we arrive?
