Are there many, some, a few of us over 50??

Duck on Wheels, will you not be hiking with your husband in Yunnan? I had to "google" "Yunnan" because I had never heard of it. How great to have such an adventuresome hubby. You are very fortunate. I love adventure trips (and refer to most anything as an adventure. . . even a bicycle tour) but always go alone (which I actually don't mind).

Nope, this was his trip. I saw the pictures afterwards, and though they were gorgeous I also could see how I would not have been able to do the hike. I have a fear of heights, and there were stretches of trail there where I would have frozen solid in fear!!!

p.s. Yesterday he watched a rerun of the Michael Palin series about hiking in the Himalayas. All serious and straight-faced, he came to my office door and harrumphed to signal an important announcement, then said that he had to go back to Yunnan again ... he'd used the wrong outhouse. (If you've seen the series, you'll know what he was referring to.)
