> Hi all:
>
> Echevarria Travel went with Nelson Echevarria's Company Picnic we do every 
> year, and this year it was on the USS Intrepid which is now a Sea and Air 
> Museum.  I plan on writing something up for the Harness up and for the 
> Braille Monitor.
>
> This is a little something to have fun with.  The USS Intrepid was in 
> service for the US Navy from 1943-1974 from World War II, Korea, Vietnam 
> and the Cold War, she also assisted with the NASA Space program.
>
> It is very accessible for all disabilities including the blind, the only 
> part of the Intrepid you cannot go is the Growler Submarine, unfortunately 
> it is not accessible since it is an actual submarine and a wheelchair 
> would not be able to go through it, very tight quarters, so Nelson we 
> through, Maxx and I went on our own tour with other friends of ours and 
> since they give you a device similar to a large MP3 player and headphones, 
> which give a full description of the museum, when you walk past something 
> it automatically goes on and tells you what you are in front of.  The 
> Planes and Helicopters and the Space Capsules were awesome.  Also a side 
> note here, on extremely hot days the upper deck of the Intrepid where the 
> Concorde is held and other planes, fighters and Coast Guard Planes, it is 
> very hot, the floor of the flight deck is hotter then the street so 
> remember this with your guide dogs.
>
> We have videos that are descriptive as much as possible, the ones I am in 
> anyway, nelson doesn't like talking on Camera so you may here others 
> talking of where you are.  They are listed on both youtube.com which you 
> can search for me my id name is angeldn3 or on my facebook page.
