November in New York!
| |
New York, New York
|
Happy Thanksgiving! We kick off the holiday season wishing you safe travels on your trips to visit loved ones near and far! Here at TravelinWheels, we are thankful for all our followers, contributors, and all the positive progress towards making travel more accessible to all!
For November, we are highlighting New York, New York. Despite the cities popularity, New York leaves much to be desired in terms of accessibility. Not to worry, the big apple is still doable-arm yourself with knowledge by reading our NYC blog, Hammer Travel's story, and reviewing our NYC accessibility guide!
London is coming up next! Be on the lookout!

Then, there is the legacy of the attacks of the World Trade Center which have forever changed the way we live and travel.
