    Preparing for trip post transplant

    I am immunocompromised, though also have some other issues with being in a line environment, and all of that particularly one that is a crowded confined space. For parades, don't line up at the edge of the parade route; people are going to crowd beside and behind you if you do; instead, there...

    Food Allergies and Club rooms at DLP hotels ?

    Thank you ! The info about the Relay store is good to know. According to Google Maps, in Val d'Europe there is a Monop, a Carrefour and an Aldi, so we could always take a trip there as well. I've been browsing blogs and videos and social media groups, and have identified the RainForest Cafe...

    Being in the US election

    And, in the context of the OP's question... *IF* the worst were to happen and things were to go horribly sideways, even if everything was perfectly safe within the WDW bubble of the park and its resorts... one does need to eventually *get home*, which is well over 1000 miles away.
