[nagdu] Traveling in New York

[Laurie Mehta]

Hi Ted, 

When I lived in Manhattan (and later in Queens), I was a cane traveler.  I loved NYC for its ease of getting around.  Manhattan was great, but Queens had some challanging places to deal with, I admit.  

After having moved away from NYC, I have traveled back to the City many times with my guide dogs.  
You'll LOVE having a guide dog.  As for overhangs and other obstacles or obstructions, I am only being honest when I tell you that each one of my GDB guides has handled it all with skill and style. /smile/  
Yes, I admit to personal bias based on good experiences, but I think you'll find yourself well-served by GDB.  
(Of course, there are some other fine programs close to NYC, and I think that others have pointed that out already. /smile/)
