London 2, the Revisit
Back to London for more accessible sights. I love my Capital City.
We were back in London again the other week and I thought it might be useful to other ‘wheelers’ if I expanded on my first London post, https://wheeliebigadventures.com/2-nights-in-london-travelling-around-my-capital-city-as-a-wheelchair-user/
How accessible is Florence for a full time wheelchair user?

This post is all about my experiences travelling around London – my Capital City as a wheelchair user, (not because I ‘own’ it silly, but because it’s the capital of the country of my birth) In the main, it’s about travelling on the London Underground as a wheelchair user. So, how was my experience? I’d love to say it was perfect. But it wasn’t. Read on for why.
Here’s the part where I sound like the geography teacher that I’m not.
Budapest. The capital of Hungary. A city separated by the Danube river. A City of two halves. You have the hilly district of Buda on one bank of the Danube and the flatter district of Pest on the other bank.
3 Nights in Rome
Rome. Another destination to tick off my Bucket List. A City of Seven Hills and lots of Cobblestones, (lots and lots and lots…did I mention the cobblestones?).
Challenge number 2, on my own personal list of places that I wanted to challenge myself on. A really ANCIENT city. I knew there’d be loads of historical attractions that, on the face of it, would be totally inaccessible to a bloke in a manual wheelchair. So were they?
