[blindkid] Canes and amusement park rides?

[Jess sA Mobile]

Holly,
Since he really doesn't need it except for identification purposes that it
might be better off if you just keep it at home. Unless you have someone who
isn't going to ride all the rides and he/she would just hold on to his cane.
You've done sighted guide with him correct? It might just be better if you
do sighted guide in a situation like that especially if he wants to go on
every ride.

What do you do with them?  We're taking Hank to 6 Flags for the first time
next week.  I haven't been in a loooong time so I'm not familiar with the
rides anymore.

A folding cane wouldn't be an issue but I'm thinking a straight cane isn't
always going to fit in the seat.  Some rides have you get off at a different
place than you get on so you couldn't just leave it with the attendant I
wouldn't think.

Thanks!

Holly
