I have actually wondered what you do about that should the masks be required.

One of the reasons that I think that guide dogs should have their own seat on airplanes is because, when they do not, there would not be an air mask for them should the cabin lose pressure. No, I have never been in that situation, and probably very few of us, if any, have, but it is still one of those terrible thoughts that lingers in the back of your mind.

We are then off in March to possibly Peru, haven't decided yet about that one.

>> Check out my blog at www.echevarriatravel.wordpress.com<http://www.echevarriatravel.wordpress.com/> for updates, I have been a little lax on the blog but over the next few days I will be putting our ship inspection of the Explorer of the Seas (Royal Caribbean) out of NJ, Oceania Cruises out of NY (the latest ship "Marina) which Maxx met Dakota Jackson, a very famous designer who did many of the staterooms on this ship, I say this because not only is he a dog lover, he has given money to various guide dog schools across the country, and he will only work with cruise lines and hotel's that are accessible to everyone.
