-Return from vacation on a Friday morning (3 days to unpack, deal with whatever has come up while away, rather than stretching vacation to the maximum by returning Sunday night)
-Travel longer and slower. Not10 days rushing all about with everyvminute planned, but 2-3 weeks, worh purposeful downtime built in
-Visit more off the beaten bplaces rather than the popular tourist places

My sense is that your 4th key may be my ticket to still enjoying travel…based upon recent experiences.

I am happy taking short trips, weekend jaunts. Don't need the 20 day tour. Don't need a cruise.

Happy with all other things I get to do now that I'm not working.

I like taking a lot of trips.

We are recently retired (late 50s/mid 60s) and thought we would want to travel more than we do. Maybe concern for Covid has ruined it for us. But I also just no longer want to deal with hassles. Life is so comfortable where we are - we also retired to a resort area so there is lots to do right here.

Flying is such a pain and cruises do not appeal. Short trips within driving distance are fun.

Traveling to visit the areas where brothers live, old friends live, any other friends. If not now, seeing them, when?
