If you’ve ever been to New York City, you no doubt remember the very first time you set foot in the Big Apple. The city that never sleeps is one like no other, and to say it leaves a lasting impression is an understatement.

One woman from Australia took a recent trip to New York, and she couldn’t contain her excitement over finally seeing Times Square, Central Park, and the Statue of Liberty. Qantas Airlines shared a video of the 90-year-old grandma’s experience on TikTok. This footage reminds us all to stop and smell the roses whenever we visit a new place.

It’s just so sweet how she stared in awe and wonder at New York City’s most iconic sites. It’s evident that she’s someone who appreciates every single day and is committed to making lasting memories.

Retirement Should Be Full of New Experiences

Your retirement years are the perfect time to see the world and visit places on your bucket list! Of course, this is much easier with extra income. Due to inadequate annual cost-of-living adjustments (COLAS), $581 was withheld from seniors’ Social Security checks. That’s why Council of Seniors is committed to getting Congress to pass The SAVE Benefits Act. If this crucial bill passes, that money will finally be returned.

Please sign our petition today to show your support! With your help, more seniors can enjoy the special retirement moments they’ve always dreamed about.
