5. Celebrate Being Seniors.

If the two of you are the adventurous type or just do not go in for overly romantic overtures, you can celebrate being together and being seniors by spending an entire day taking advantage of senior discounts in your area. Eat out, go to the movies, go bowling and shop for tokens of your affection in shops and places that offer senior discounts. To make this more exciting, seek out establishments that are a bit more out of the ordinary, such as go-kart racing, pottery painting, 4×4 wilderness tours or a zip line adventure.
