Darren Hillock located a travelogue on wheelchair travel in South America that was recently published in the Austin Statesman. I especially appreciate how one of the travelers, Pat Broderick, understands herself to be an ambassador for other travelers with disabilities who come after her. We are still enough of a novelty in many places that our individual actions make a big difference. Read about Pat Broderick and Julia Malone at:

Darren always has something interesting going over at Get Around Guide -- the blog.
