Elderly adventures My boyfriends parents are going to Austrailia today ,how cool is that ? His mom is 80 years old this yr and his dad is 78 .Dad is a palentologist and they are going on a dig so its not just a cushy trip with all kinds of luxery haha she even took disposable underware haha we laughed so hard ,I told her the one bit of advice i remember from my camping days as a kid ..be careful not to pee on your socks ..I will miss them like crazy they are gonna be gone for 6wks ,so age isnt that relavent to having fun ..they are going to have a adventure ,,thats what they call it ,I just want them to have the time of there lives ...oh and they are kinda like newly weds ...only been together for 6 yrs ..so they will be looking forwrd to cuddles in the sleeping bag haha I"ll be looking forwrds to there safe return!:thumbup: |
That is too cute! I hope they have a great time :) And I hope when I'm 80 I'm traveling the world too! |
WOW ! awesome ! That's a cool trip ...I'd love to do that... My 78 year old parents are getting ready to drive 2000 miles back east and live on the beach for 2 months - NO running water - and you have to walk a long way to the can....but. They are still in the STATES so it's not as adventureous as yours ! |
Wow, That sounds like such a wonderful, adventurous trip. Wish I could go. |
I'm in! |
And to think this women survied a brain tumor and this man survied a sub -aracnoid hemerage just 2 yrs ago ,hers was about 20 yrs ago .They are some of my biggest inspirations in life ~ Along with her best friend who just got back from China she is 86 this yr |
That is great! I hope I am still having that kind of fun when I am their age! My Foster Mom is 90 and she still goes on all those senior trips with her group...it is like Camp for Seniors! She has been widowed 3 times, still raises a garden and puts up her veggies for the winter. She even raises chickens and gathers her own eggs...AND lives alone! She has worked hard all her life...I think that is her secret...she never sat down and took it easy! |
That is great they have the health to enjoy going and doing, there is much truth to the saying "age is only a number" My grandmother lived to be 100 and she did great, she was always active and I think that helps. |
Truly inspiring. It would be wonderful to follow in their footsteps. They are living my dream of my future with Dan. |
