>> hi,
>>
>> excuse the cross post.
>>
>> I have seen several people asking about what tour would be possible to
>
>> experience so i called the Henry Ford museum.
>>
>> I learned that especially if you are mostly or completely blind, you
>> will not likely enjoy the ford museum if you go by yourself as they do
>
>> not have assistant workers that walk around and answer questions and
>> you can't touch the cars.
>> The lady who answered the phone said you could easily spend about
>> three hours just in the autos section.
>>
>> It seems that the cars division should have already made the
>> contact/collected the information but there doesn't seem to be a list
>> for that group and nothing happens between conventions.
>>
>> I plan to schedule my return flight later in the day so i can stop at
>> the ford museum which is half way between the marriott and the
> airport.
>>
>> i explained that there will be 2,500 to 3,000 people at the convention
>
>> and didn't know how many would be looking to take a tour and we have a
>
>> antiques and hot rods group and they have provided cloth gloves in the
>
>> past so we could feel parts of the cars that were displayed.
>>
>> the lady will call me back next week after she does some research
>> which will also give people some time to consider this plan; email me
>> if you want to be part of a group tour of 15 to 25 people which will
>> cost $150.
>> we will be provided with a guide that will tell us details about what
>> we're looking at like model, year, features, history, etc. and the
>> guide will assist us for 90 minutes.
>> After that time, you can explore more on your own or possibly pay
>> again for another session.
>>
>> the proposed time would be somewhere between 12:00p and 3:00p so you
>> could have time to check out, eat lunch, then travel to the museum.
