I thought this resource was awesome! It's great to see vacationing enjoyable for all people, regardless of an impairment, disability, etc. I think that their website was very informative. Even though, the words were small I feel that it's still easy to access the information and could easily be magnified or spoken using AT on a computer. There was a page that I thought could use EqTDs. The section showing pictures of past trips that people have taken could use EqTDs to allow folks with vision impairments to get an idea of some of the vacations that others have taken.
