KEEPING fit.
One Australian great-grandmother is
inspiring older Aussies to keep fit, a trend
which may see a rise in demand for onboard
fitness programs for older cruise passengers.
The 90-year old Edna Shepherd is a
regular at her Melbourne gym, taking an
aqua class every day, as well as sweating it

attitude to life, that has helped inspire others
to be like her,” her gym instructor said.
