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.
En Bolivia las personas de la tercera edad, gozan del descuento de un 10% en impuestos inmuebles, servicios básicos y transporte publico.
Qué bien que solo faltan 20 anos más para mi.
Se considera tercera edad en Bolivia a las personas a partir de los 65 años Andreas, me parece que te falta un poco mas.
Entonces faltan 23 anos.
Arghhh, solo 23 anos hasta será viejo?? :O :O
