    Great answer grandma! You’re never too old to learn new things and have new experiences.

    My parents went on similar trips until Dad died, and Mom went on her last one when she was 79. (Dad had died a year earlier.)

    You couldn’t TIE my Mom down- she took her camper from the Al-Can high way all the way down to the tip of Mexico. Flew to every continent all after she retired.
    Sure miss her.

    I think Val is supportive–she’s asking her Mom, not lambasting her for it.

    It’s simple, where else is she about to find a babysitter at a reasonable as what her Mother charges (nothing).

    When I die, I want to go like my granddad did, asleep and peaceful - not like his passengers.

    Not that old, 71, but made a first trip to South Africa this year and going back next year. This was too perfect for my situation!!! Thank you, Jan.
