"★★★★★ So many great ideas! What sets this book apart from other travel guides is the author's emphasis on staying healthy and offering options not only for activities but also for health and well-being. One of the aspects of this book that I particularly enjoyed was the way it was formatted. At the end of each chapter, there were helpful links and resources for further information, making it easy to plan and prepare for your trip and or lifestyle change. It also had poems scattered throughout that were really fun! The authors personal stories and the extensive list of stuff to do was amazing, stuff I have never herd of that now I have to try! A must-read for anyone looking for an adventure-filled retirement or just needs some ideas for your free time. It provides wonderfully detailed and well-planned trips and activities. There is truly something for everyone! - Ali G. ★★★★★ ""Fine Tune That Bucket List!- Time to fine tune that bucket list! Not just a list of things to do, some self-analysis in here as well, important because you will have more options than you may actually have time to do. Interesting chapter on self-care and physical health. Lots and lots of fun and healthy ideas. Different ways to enjoy social connections and people. General fun stuff, places to go, things to see, lots and lots of traveling stuff, there really is a lot of things to do for everyone."" -Tall S. ★★★★★ ""Filled with lots of ideas and links! I enjoyed the fact that there were many research links further into the ideas. The book is chock full of ideas, I think my father will enjoy this book!"" - Karen Z. ★★★★★ Golden Years Best retirement book for fun seekers and dream chasers. - VFXFan ★★★★★ It is the Ultimate Book for life! I recently retired and was so excited to find this book. It is full of so many resources to get you started on a great retirement. This book is more like a guidebook because it addresses retirement from day 1 and beyond. I felt pretty prepared when I retired, but after reading this book there are so many more items on my to do list, but it doesn't feel overwhelming. You can read and apply or bookmark for later. I'm very happy to have this book and look forward to referencing it often. - Valerie C."
