Mexican caravan with disabilties
I am wagon master on a small Mexican Caravan this Fall. We have never had anyone with disabilities before. This time we have 3. My sister who is co-wagon master has MS. One other customer needs a hip replacement and the 3rd one is in a wheelchair after a stroke. It has been quite an eye opener. Mexico is not exactly disability friendly. Fortunateley the lady in the wheelchair on'y weighs about 100 lbs. We had to lift her 4 ft to get her onto the Copper Canyonb train for eg. If it was a a 300 lb individual it would be impossible. As it is she has managed on about 90% of our tours. Now at least know where to draw the line.
