Our son Joshua now age 6 is autistic, and on our first visit 3 years ago we were very self conscious about others would think when we use the GAC. But after many trips I don't remember any bad comment or event. We like many of you only use it as a last option. My feeling is that you are there to make sure that your family is having a good time. Do what you can to make it enjoyable. As long as you are not rude or obusive towards the system, most people don't mind (they are enjoying their own vacation.)
Now we do use a stroller for him and we even got one to handle him now that he has gotten bigger. We use mainly as we walk through the park. He can walk, but this is more for us to keep him from running off and to help him have a place to himself.
Enjoy your trip.
That sounds very similar to what we do with our son, who is 11, also called Joshua
As I say earlier we have had comments from CMs in the past, unfortuntely it does happen - but as you say the important thing is to remember we are there to have a good time.
