Is it weird to be able to walk and use a wheelchair?

So I have a trip planned to Disney world. It’s a lot of walking so I am planning on taking my wheelchair. But I can also walk but not long distance without falling or feeling of falling. I wanna know what other people would think if they see a guy in a wheelchair get up and walk.

Do what you have to do- I'm the same as you!Tae the chair and sit in it when you're in line. Then you can walk around the park a little bit easier but remember the chair is there to assist you! It's not weird it happens!

I do it all the time. I'll park my scooter/walker and walk around. Nobody says anything. I have foot drop and a limp so when I walk you can clearly see it. Plus the invisible pain and stiffness. Have a great time at Disney! Definitely contact them to find out their handicap set up. It'll make your trip so much more enjoyable for you and whoever you're with.
