[Travelandtourism] Passports

[cheryl echevarria]

Awesome, I hope you come a day early.

I didn't know they were having a fundraiser out of NY.

Cool!

I tried to do a few in the past one was for NAGDU; nobody went.

If you are paying catch up, I took NFB members, it was supposed to be anyone 
who is blind in the area, but it turned out to be all NFB members from NY/NJ 
area.

We went on a ship tour of the Norwegian Gem had a great time on it.

Wrote up an article for the braille monitor about it, just getting it 
edited, and sending it off, I hope it gets in for the December edition
