[Blindtlk] Loud Places

[robin.beautifullyblind at ymail.com]

Hi Carly,
     The problem I have with loud places, is not being able to tell if someone is in front of me without hitting them with my cane. I will try the pencil technique, and not trail the wall like I usually do.

For me, this  remains absolutely the  case, and is a large part of perceptual understanding of particularly loud environments. :18 AM 4/3/2015, robin.eautifullyblind--- via blindtlk wrote:

I trailed the wall from the cash register to the place where I needed to pick up my coffee. There was a little girl in my path, and I didn't realize it. Her mother got mad, and told her daughter to move. I want to avoid this from happening again. So, I am in need of some tips. Thank you in advance!
