Toe in the water.

At Porto airport the man holding the SAGA clipboard told me to go over and wait by the Avis desk, I joined a small group of people which soon expanded to 46. Looking around I thought to myself Oh God what have I let myself in for, all these people were OLD. I then looked again and realised that at least 20% of them were younger than me and I imagine everyone in the group was thinking the same thoughts as me.
That was thee days ago and my feet haven't touched the ground since. I have been out for meals with huge amounts of wine, toured a port warehouse with tasting afterwards, been on a tour of Porto, a cruise up the River Douro which included a meal with copious wine and today been on two tours with another meal booked for this evening. I am having a day off tomorrow - I can't keep up.

    So please define old ... is it from the outside looking in or the inside looking out ?
    Either way sounds like you are off to a flyer
