[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in Venice this year. I did not realize before going that it is really a series of islands, connected by small bridges. Must of those have 3-8 stairs up and 3-8 stairs down. I am in my 60’s and the many unexpected stairs put me off walking to my nearby hotel. (I am an active senior, who was touring Italy alone.) She might enjoy a tour by gondola , but even that entails getting into a low, unstable boat. I did run into a couple (somewhere else in Italy) who were doing a wine tasting tour BY GOLF CART! If you can find something like that…perhaps it would work for your mom. Good luck (on the trip…and when you are old yourself. That husband sounds selfish and non-empathetic!)[/quote] When I went to Italy in November twenty years ago, it was basically flooded and we had to walk around in boots on wooden planks. Venic in November is not a good idea for a knee pain ridden 78 year old. [/quote]
