Never Too Old for the Magic of Travel

September 5, 2008 on 4:17 pm | By admin | In Travel

When my father was widowed in his sixties, he was lost. He and my mother had traveled the world together and always told me they enjoyed the “magic” of visiting exotic locations.

After several years of being alone and staying at home, Dad finally joined a seniors’ club and met a vibrant sixty-year old widow who’d traveled almost as much as he had. They began dating.

Recently Dad was telling me that he had been looking at Bali private villas online. When I asked why, he said that he was planning a trip there.

I looked surprised so he added, “I’ll be on my honeymoon”. He said he’d not only missed Mom, he’d missed traveling; and now, at last, the magic was back.
