Tassia and I will be happy volunteering on this. We don`t have a car, but if public transportion works well there I think it`ll be ok for otavio (we have enjoyed large cities by bus in past DCs with him). Just check if the bus supports wheelchair users being able to travel seated in the wheelchair.
