To be sure, both Maya Air and Tropic are quick and easy and you'll get a great view of the country. I like to mentally check off features as we pass over: downtown BZ City, Gales Point, Hank's shrimp farm, Hopkins, etc. But nothing beats having your own wheels for seeing the countryside up close and personal.
Speaking of getting old, my wife and I went to the movies last weekend and just for the heck of it I told the ticket person we were seniors so we'd get the discount. She didn't blink an eye an punched out two senior tickets. My wife checked on the internet later and discovered you're supposed to be at least sixty to qualify. Hah! Unfortunately, we'll qualify in about two and a half more years. So getting old isn't all bad. Mostly bad. Almost all bad. Pretty much all bad. Except you can go watch a movie cheaper than those young whippersnappers talking through the movie right behind you.
