VISITORS WITH DISABILITY

by P.Ford Online Now Jan 8, 2011 at 12:32 PM

I use elbow crutches but can walk only a short distance. I will be visiting N.Y.Alesund via a cruise 7/11. Is it possible for me to use either my small electric scooter or a wheelchair to follow the designated route around the town please? Any advice will be gratefully received. Thanks.
