Windsor Castle
My two Support Workers and I went to Windsor on Friday. None of us had been before, and we were thrilled when we entered the Castle and the man at the gate told us the King was in residence. (I, of course, said it was because we were there! 😊)

Hello
I assume you mean the next new years and I’m not to late!
We have hotels listed on Accessible Japan but just a drop in the bucket… but it can be a good place to start. I may suggest getting a travel agent to help with booking hotels.
As for Disney, in general, the rule is that you must be able to evacuate by yourself in an emergency…

East Kirkby Aviation Museum
I check out Lincolnshire’s East Kirkby Aviation Museum with the Lancaster Bomber to see how accessible it is during normal operations and a car show event.
Ever crashed a wheelchair into a door frame at an aviation museum? No? Just me then. 😅
Welcome to my 3 part Vlog of East Kirkby Aviation Heritage Centre in Lincolnshire – exploring the iconic…

Thanks for showing us around the museum in your wheelchair, as I’m a permanent wheelchair user, so that’s always useful information
