The third stage of life

In Spanish, there is a nice expression for seniors or old people: tercera edad, the third stage of life.

Once you have held out that long, you are rewarded with reduced ticket prices.

    Cool ! But I like more the Bavarian way of granting elder people some discount (at least they have this rule in the Karl Valentin Museum):
    “People above the age of 70 can visit free-of-charge if they are accompanied by their parents”

    • Haha!
      In Italy, entrance was/is free in many museums to make seniors (65+) from all EU countries. My Dad saved a lot of money when he visited me in Sicily.
