Vacation to Florida - need advice

[Guest guest]

I am flying to Florida this Friday with my wife and her family. We will be staying at her Aunt and Uncle's house right outside of Orlando. Her parents know that I am having difficulties with my UC, but don't completely understand my dietary changes. They're all about the "balanced diet" and the the great "Food Pyramid". I have been on the SCD diet for 4-5 weeks now and haven't had sugar or lactose during that time. Doing somewhat better.

Once we get down there to FL, I know her parents are wanting to go to Sea World, the beach and Tampa Bay for a Rays baseball game. Any suggestion on traveling and what I can eat that day. I haven't done any traveling since I started this diet and not sure what to do about that. I really don't want to steer away from my diet b/c I know how it will make me feel.

Also, what suggestions can anyone offer if I we would go out to a restaurant to eat? I don't know if I can evade that for 7 days with her parents. They like to "relax" when their on vacation, especially eating out.

Any suggestions about how anyone deals with a trip would greatly be appreciated.
