Denver International Airport, 9:00 AM, United Club lounge So what am I doing flying by myself to Chile at age 77 with a heart condition, hearing challenges, and a declining short-term memory? Well, if my 85-year-old friend, Andre, can fly all over the world (and his heart is in worse shape than mine), I don’t have any excuses. 10:20 AM MST, enroute to Miami I’ve spent many an hour planning for this trip to Chile and putting it together. Along the way, I’ve given considerable thought as to what I want out of this adventure. Here are a few ideas: I’ve been fascinated with this very long, skinny country ever since I became a geography geek around age 9. So never having been to southern South America, I decided that it was time to get my ass in gear and make my 5 th trip south of the equator. Like a 35-year-old woman who is hell-bent on motherhood, my biological clock has been ticking away and Dog-only-knows when I will hit traveler’s menopause. Travelling can be tough
