I've been thinking about the food thing. I'm really uncomfortable trying to get other places to accomodate me, for several reasons. First, going vegan was my choice; they are not obligated to accomodate my unusual diet. Second, I get very uncomfortable when people fuss over me; I hate to inconvenience others. Third, I do not trust someone who does not understand and respect veganism to serve food to me; I am very, very uncomfortable eating in non-vegan restaurants. I can't tell you how many times I've been served non-vegan food because they "forgot" or "didn't realize" (and often, it's clear that they simply did not care).
So anyway, instead I'm heading to the grocery store the night before and filling every extra space left in my suitcase with snacks. Dried fruit, nuts, chips, cereal, crackers, cookies, pastries, bread, whatever else looks good. Plus, I suspect that we'll have a hot water source in the hotel (probably a coffee maker), so I can bring anything that just requires hot water: those little "cup of soups," noodle mixes that you just add hot water to, etc.
Not the greatest fun in the world, but it's only three days. I'll come home and make up for it by ordering from Angelica's Kitchen, Cafe Viva, Kate's Corner, the Organic Grill, Madras Cafe, Vegetarian's Paradise, etc, etc, etc for the next week. :)
