Have you ever heard of something called cost?
In 1961 to go to Kenya and back would have cost a third to a half or more of a persons yearly salary.
She and her husband didn't have thew money, neither did her parents.
In 1961 she probably couldn't get to Kenya by flying west, she would have to fly east.
HI to the mainland.
Across mainland to NY.
NY to London.
London ti Kenya.
In 1961, if you were lucky the flight from NY to London was non stop, the rest forget about it.
In 1961 you also had a little problem going overseas and back with a thing called immunization. We were right in the middle of what was called the Cold War, ever heard of it?
There was a big fear of the Russians slipping someone into the country with an infectious disease.
Add to that the diseases that were rampant in Africa at the time, and it was pretty tough to get into this country from Africa without immunization shots.
In the 1960’s children had shot cards in order to go to school/travel..as for flights there were numerous unschedule-charter aircraft flying every where at low rates...the first airlift from africaw supposedly cost $300, And don’t forget Obie admits to passing through Australia with poor destitute mommie on one of his trips...
Stanley Ann spent years - nay, decades - flying around the world. She had financing, money, funds, expense account, etc. Obviously money was no object.
Doctors couldn’t give immunizations? I got immunizations to go overseas in 1959 and 1960. It wasn’t a hard task and didn’t cost a king’s ransom.
Next argument.
