thanks!
Thanks I know Merrell has great sandals but didn't know they had boots, I will take a Gander at them pun intended
Keen's are working well for me. But truly the best advice I could give is to go to a REAL shoe store. Forget about Payless Shoesource and anything you see at WalMart or Target. Find your local store that carries all of the higher-end brands like Merrell, Keen, Ecco, Birkenstock. Very often they can recommend a specific brand that will work well for your feet.Thanks I know Merrell has great sandals but didn't know they had boots, I will take a Gander at them pun intended
No worries there, I learned many, many years ago that good shoes are a lifesaver for me - I walk 12 hours a day on what is basically a concrete floor in an ER. I have a fortune tied up in New Balance, Easy Spirit, Reebok shoes just for work - I put new ones into service about every 3 months just for work and rotate the older ones to walking shoes then day off shoes etc but never wear a pair more than a year total! I have spent several hours online tonight to do research on Keens and Merrells - trouble is they are hard to find in an actual store for me to try on and decide which brand and which version but I learned long ago there are many ways to skin a cat and I will find just the right kind for the two of us, the nice thing is we both wear the same size and are the same weight so when I find the ones that work best for me (hard to find shoes due to diabetic foot changes/neuropathy) they will be perfect for her, then I just have her try mine on to be sure before I wear them more than a few times and I go back and get more or order more online
The staff at the local Reebok Outlet just shake their heads when I walk up to the counter with 4-6 prs of the same shoe to buy 
Congratulations!
I'll try to help as much as I can...I'm a big fan of my Crocs still, nothing makes the soles of my feet as happy as they do. I prefer a sandal style, Cleo. It's usually warm enough in Florida even in December for them.
I've used Buena Vista on my past trips, but had problems with their equipment being old and shabby and unreliable. Also, their scooter model for pooh-sized folks doesn't break down for transport. On my upcoming December trip, I am trying Walker Mobility for the first time. They assure me that ALL of their scooters, even the heavy duty models (for larger folks) will easily break down into 5 pieces and can be stored in the trunk of a midsize car. (I use the Disney buses around property, but we are spending a day over at Universal on this trip and I need to take it with me.)
I have Lupus and Fibromyalgia, and have to be extremely careful with how much sun exposure I get. I have had very good results with Neutrogena's "Ultra Sheer Body Mist Sunscreen Broad Spectrum" in a SPF 100+. I use it all over, even on my face, and haven't had any reactions or clogged pores.
I know I've heard of this being possible. I don't have first-hand experience with it, though. You may want to ask over on the DISabilities forum, I'm sure some folks over there would be able to tell you more.
I love Kilimanjaro Safari! I've never had any trouble getting in and out of the ride vehicle at all.
Congratulations!

Perfect! I already own Crocs..but I don't wear socks with them and when my feet sweat they slide SO badly, I was scared to take them to Disney. I will check out the other models, maybe its time to switch it up - I have the clog style with the strap back.

That's what I had found too, I am glad that you recommended Walker - the first three I tried don't break down in their larger models. And we have a Honda CRV with lots of room in the back, so we can definitely fit two. Phew!

Sweet, thank you - my DH says so too, we don't know anyone with fibro and its been very hard for him since his diagnosis.

Hope that helps!
Yep, that's exactly why I prefer the Cleo style. All the comfort of a Crocs sole, but fits like a regular sandal!
I can't wear contacts either. I wear my glasses on most rides. If it's one I'm worried about them falling off on, like Rock n Rollercoaster, I just take them off and stuff them in my bag, and deal with it being a bit blurry. Although I am considering maybe breaking down finally, and getting one of those straps to secure them to my head so that I don't need to take them off!
I usually take an old pair that maybe dony have my up to date prescription and switch them just before rides like RnR. That way i still get to see (mostly) and im not going to lose my all important regular glasses (i have very poor sight though).
