Hello Local Guide Friends…

My first Accessiblity Photography Physical Meet up was eventful and meaningful, despite the traffic delays and other hurdles along the way.We reached the restaurant, I @Shrut19 and @MayuriKubal started clicking photos of the entrance & then we went inside the restaurant where LG were waiting for us.I was very excited to meet LG friends from different parts of Gujarat and @Nomad_vikram from Rajasthan.

I started with Introducing my self to them and ordering snacks, then I start asking them their names friendly way a little introduction about themselves, clicking photos, and having snacks together was enjoyable.
Enjoyed the time spent with LG friends at the restaurant discussing about accessibility & Google maps.
I asked LG to write their connect id ,circulated the writing pad , because I met few of them for first time & I didn’t knew their connect id I told them will write recap & tag them that time few asked were will I write recap they said they are not so active on connect, I ,Shruti and share with them about connect community .Some of them had query regarding Local Guide Community, @NareshDarji & Shruti answered them.They all were happy when we three told them you all post on connect about trip to Mumbai & meet up.

Then a LG told he can write only in Gujurati that time Shruti answered you can write it no issues.
Then @HinalLad . shared restaurant wash room is not accessible it’s clean. But you have climb steps go on 1st floor.

I could explain to the owner about accessibility while ordering snack in Marathi language,highlighting the need for ramps which could significantly benefit his business With nearby offices, his restaurant being accessible can attract those with disabilities.
But we had short of time, so we need to hurry.We took group photos said goodbye…

It was a memorable time.It was great meeting all LG from Gujarat and Rajasthan thank you everyone… Thanks to Isha who join Virtually.

Hello mama @RosyKohli . It is good to see that this your meetup was well attended and engaging.
It was a good thing that the meetup helped answer questions from new local guides and most importantly that you focused on wheelchair accessibility.

Also i enjoyed viewing your photos in the link as well as the yummy food spread all over the tables and also the happy smiling face.

well done

Hey @RosyKohli

It was indeed a great time. The yummy snacks and insightful knowledge transfer by @NareshDarji @Shrut19 made the Meetup worth attending. Meeting Local Guides from Gujarat was a cherry on cake moment. Looking forward to many meet-ups in the coming year. Sending you all my best wishes for all the amazing work you do.
