Gluten Free Barcelona/Flight
Is anyone here besides me gluten free? If so, how did your flight go? How easy was it to navigate Barcelona's food? Getting glutened in Barcelona is NOT an option. It would inhibit bone growth. Not to mention I could tear loose one of the implants with the violence of my reaction to it.
I am worried more about the flight I think, because I will be learning Spanish before I go (enough to get around), and because Europe is WAY better at GF than the US (aren't they better at everything?). Apparently all I need to say is "Yo soy Celiaco" and they will be able to take care of me. But I don't want to trust only that. The flight over, however, I am a captive audience, and if they forget to get my meal ON the plane (it happens frighteningly often) then it will be a very hungry flight.
