[Travelandtourism] Adventure/Leisure with Public Transit updates and corrected link

[Cheryl Echevarria]

Good morning Trevor and all:

Not sure if anyone knows how to use tinyurl.com or how to make urls smaller,
but if you put in a web link that is very long, it cuts off. 

Below is Trevor's link.

If anyone needs help posting links, please let me know.

Also on NFB newsline, we have a number of travel magazine and magazines that
have a lot of travel information in them that has been put on. The division
was asked last year to recommend a few, there is Conde Nast Traveler was
added back in 2014

Also some that are general magazines but always have travel in them

 AARP Bulletin
AARP The Magazine
Family Circle
Family Fun
Ladies Home Journal
New Yorker

Newspapers
USA Today - National (I have done a few interviews with them)
New York Times (The Times also does any annual travel trade show here in NY
that is opened the 1st day for the travel professionals around the country,
and the weekend for the general public.)

You own local papers may have information as well.

Thank you for posting Trevor.

The National Federation of the Blind knows that blindness is not the
characteristic that defines you or your future. Every day we raise the
expectations of blind people, because low expectations create obstacles
between blind people and our dreams. You can have the life you want;
blindness is not what holds you back.

Hi TnT,

This article seems pertinent, not to mention interesting and full of good
ideas for those of us who can't drive. Of course there are additional things
blind people may wish to consider when taking such excursions; but I'd go on
them given the time and resource.

Check it out:

Interesting bit on the Jamaican politician.

Best,

Trevor
