Me and Linda in September 1972 took our first flight and first overseas holiday. Two weeks in C’an Picafort. It’s hard to imagine how excited we were embarking on an overseas holiday.

We arrived at Palma airport and then traveled by bus to our hotel 60 km. Our hotel was new and luckily finished,which was more than can be said for many holiday makers at that time.

Thinking back I remember the best trip was to the Cuevas del Drach (Cavern of the Dragon) with its underground lake. Listening to the orchestra playing as it sailed down the lake.

We were ultra careful at the beach sun wise, ahead of our time, although others left with a much better tan.
