ADVENTURES, CHALLENGES, AND INSIGHTS OF A COUPLE IN EARLY RETIREMENT
In life and roving retirement, you have to be flexible. After Diana got discharged from the hospital in Johannesburg, we spent another six days waiting for her to be “Fit-to-Fly” before returning to the US. One day during the wait, I took a ride on a sightseeing bus.
Sparkling wine has always been one of Diana’s favorite beverages, but it can be pricey. Thanks to our sommelier friend, we learned about a great, reasonably priced alternative to French Champagne.
Our roving retirement hasn’t been without its mishaps. Any time you travel, you could need a doctor for a sprained ankle, a stomach bug, or in my case, major orthopedic surgery. This article describes some of our experiences.
Roving retirement and around the world travel can be unpredictable. Ours had more than our fair share of excitement including a Medivac trip in Africa. I am definitely going to count that flight as one of our many on this trip.
Our roving retirement tour of Africa took us from Nairobi Kenya to Victoria Falls Zimbabwe. We were here to see Victoria Falls and the Zambezi river with its elephants, hippos, and crocodiles.
