About the only 2 things that I'm afraid of (especially at my age) are extreme jet lag (likely for me - since I live 13 time zones away) - and earthquakes (not likely during a short stay). Robyn
Fear is not always rational for human beings. For me, there does not have to be a physical threat. Usually, for me it is just anything new or unknown which creates fear. Just being different caused me to experience fear.
