What to Expect
Activity Level 3: A little more to it
My walking shoes are laced up tight and I’m ready to keep up with my travel companions. I look forward to getting to know them on the drives and/or flights we’ll take between cities. I enjoy getting around in Zodiac rafts and 4x4 vehicles for short durations. A little mental and physical stimulation will do me good
