one person in our group will need to occasionally use a wheel chair in florence. ANy idea where to rent one? can they fold up to go in a taxi? since person won't need all the time is it possible to bring them into all major places and possibly leave in a coatroom or someplace safely? are there someplaces where can't be taken. ( ramps not a problem as can get up and walk some times.<BR>thanks
