From travel

My wife and I will be traveling in Europe in May and June with our three young adult sons, with the specific eye on finding a possible second home that has most of the amenities needed for life with a wheelchair. Our oldest boy can only walk with assistance and has some rather severe issues, but his general health is good. In our place in the western U.S., he has easy access to medical care, an adult day program for socialization, and care workers that help us with some of his day-to-day living.
