I am looking at traveling to the UK, then buying a Eurail pass and seeing Europe. That was my plan about 45 years ago when I got out of the army. I started in Greece but got sidetracked to Italy. After walking around Rome for a few days, I began to feel homesick. It had been two years since I had been back to the US. I hopped on a train to London, went straight to the airport, and waited until I got the first standby flight in the morning. I haven't been back since. I thought that I would try again after retirement, but I retired at the start of the pandemic, so travel wasn't an option. Now, I believe that it's about time.

I plan on visiting my sister in Anchorage, Alaska and our friends on Kodiak Island. We might visit Talkeetna, also. I'll get discounts on car rentals and maybe restaurants.

Normally we use our vacation time to visit family, and that is still important to us. But this year we are going to visit as many National Parks as we can in 16 days. We'll probably head west since that is where most of the National Parks are. We like to stay at Best Western hotels because they give us an AARP %15 percent discount on our room.

I plan to take a cruise down a river or a coast line  here in America.  I've dreamed about taking a cruise most of my adult life. Now that I'm a senior and my children are grown and my husband went to heaven, it's time I get it off by bucket list. This type of cruise I can afford and will enjoy greatly.

I'm getting ready for a cruise to the Caribbean on Carnival Cruise Line. By being a member of AARP I'm able to get 10% off of Carnival Gift Carrds. Plus I'm able to get discounts on hotel stays, car rentals, and restaurants in the area I'm going to before the cruise.

WOW! What a great idea!

I have so many great places I want to go, but I think I would put a large map on the wall and throw a dart to decide which one to go to first. Then, I would check the AARP website to find places to stay and dine that give me AARP discounts and get gift cards for dining and transportation. 

TX AARP.

How I am longing to return to San Miniato in Florence, Italy.   The place offers a spectacular view of the city, and the richness of this renaissance masterpiece of a place to walk and wonder comes alive.   It is a good starting point before one goes walking through the great and historic meandering streets below.

I would use the prize money to help fund this trip of my dreams.  For a while there, I feared I might not be able to return again with the world issues being what they are.  Now that I remind myself that time is our most precious commodity, I hope to climb those stairs again to see a view that will take my breath away and remind me of the beauty in our world.
