[Jedi Moerke]

Why do we automatically assume that taking a human guide  is faster or more efficient?

They are on Friday evenings which means my parents have to wait until rehearsal ends to go down to our camper.  My question is this: I have always just went sighted guide with my family or friends just because it is faster for everyone.  However, since I may have to take the transit sometimes or go with another chorus momber, do you think it is appropriate to use sighted guide technique with them, whether it be the transit driver or another person in the group? Or should I arrange for someone to show me how to get in and out of the chorch independently? If so, if my mobility instructor cannot do it, how would a family member go about taking over this role? I used sighted guide with my friends in my college women's chohus, but I have a feeling that since this group is a community group, it will be different.  What do you guwiths think?
