"It’s not the six week road trip we usually take in winter, but that’s ok."

Give it time ... maybe the 6 week vacation will happen again. After 13 years of PMR, I'm doing a 6 week vacation right now. At one stage, assisted living was going to be my next destination.

Next winter, I plan to check Australia off my bucket list. The 3 week TransPacific cruise should be okay but I'm dreading the 24 hour flight to get back home.

Not sure where your home is - just wondering if you have considered stopping off in Hawaii on the way home. Honolulu is about halfway between Dallas and Sydney. Have a few days of layover to help transition. I have learned to cruise one way and fly the other way on my vacations. I also do not over schedule my day's activities like I once did. Not sure I would seriously consider a 24 hour flight, even if I did not have PMR. I flew from Dallas to China non-stop, that was like 15 hours in first class and never again. I don't care how many meals and wine they serve you. I'm simply too old to want to do that again.
