    We can’t go out any more as my wife has a chronic illness and we can’t travel far any more. It’s through no fault of anyone … it was just bad luck that she got sick.

    But I would suggest that while you are able and capable to organize at least once a year to take you and your spouse to the highest priced hotel you can or want to pay for and stay there for at least a day or two or more (I would suggest a week).

    As long as you have bit of money to move around, I would really encourage you to really plan out and do this no matter how. We never had much of a high budget when we went out for our trips. It’s amazing what you can organize with a bit of money and stretching out a budge as much as possible.

    The reason why I say do it … is that age is creeping up on all of us and it is a very sad thing to get to a point in your life when you no longer can do the things you had always wanted to. We got to do lots and we are happy but still we feel like we could have done more if we had been lucky enough to maintain our health.

    Go to a hotel and pay extra for a higher end place with great bathroom / shower / tub facilities.

    I used to travel a lot overseas for fun … when we were younger, stronger, healthier and had a bit of money. One of the best parts of the trip was in booking a really nice hotel near the airport just before you leave because you know you will be roughing it for the next week or two in budget hotels or apartments.

    Then it was also great when you came home … we’d book the same luxury hotel at the end of the trip and there was no better feeling than to come off a long flight, crash into a big huge hotel room, run a hot shower and stand there for an hour … then run a tub and soak there for another hour. The only issue we ever had was that my wife would always want first dibs and we’d take turns lounging in the water, while the other watched TV or fell asleep in a nice cool room with thick fluffy duvets, then at the end of it all, we both fall asleep like babies together… man I miss those trips.
