In this one I walk through twelve very common physical mistakes that quietly send cruisers our age to the ship's medical center, from falls on the stairs to dehydration, seasickness, sunburn, and symptoms we talk ourselves out of taking seriously. For each one I tell you what actually happens, why it lands you in front of the medical team, and the small, boring fix that prevents it. None of this is about fear. It is about a few simple habits that let you come home with wonderful memories instead of a surprise bill. If you cruise after 60, or you love someone who does, I made this one for you. A gentle, honest note: the onboard medical center bills your account at the time and Medicare generally does not cover you outside the United States, so travel insurance matters. This channel is general travel information, not medical, financial, or insurance advice.
