Glad you had a wonderful, relaxed vacation and got home safe. Don't let your pride get in your way. Maybe start with a cane and move on to a rollator. I have hip issues and I use a cane every so often but recently was advised by doctor that I should use it as much as possible to reduce the pressure on my bad left hip which will reduce how often they get imflammated. On previous trips I was considering renting a rollator. On the Aruba booklet that they used to distribute at the airport and used to be attached to this forum, I noticed an ad where you can rent a walker, rollator or even a motor scooter for a few days or a week. I had considered that a few times and I just might rent a rollator next trip. I really missed out several times when I stood at Aruba Phoenix on walking the boardwalk.
