Its not rude at all! Im 39 now but will be 40 in July so will be that old when I go on this trip so thought this trip would be way of celebration or commiseration ha ha. I went on a trip to NZ with this co 5 years ago and there was a mixed age range from 25 through to 88 but it was great a real laugh and made the trip having a wide selection of ages. Coral
