World Cruise

Well, now another cruise she's off to book, On 'round the world' tour they just now unveiled. Remembering her notes, she took a look; Less than a year ago, for months, she'd sailed; December until March, she had prevailed. Cause, now you see- she is retired and old. Rent is too pricey in her small hometown; Upward costs for food are now uncontrolled. Instead, she'd rather keep expenses down, Sailing for months- around the world neath sun; Enjoying sites, fine room, and board- have fun!

Amazing, I have a friend who loves taking cruises and they meet many seniors who live on the boat, cheaper than a seniors home! Great write!

Yes, Jan, she is 90 years old and does these trips alone, making friends on the cruises! You know, if you're in good health, it's cheaper than an assisted living nursing home! Hugs, Sandra
