A Two Week Mediterranean Cruise Ahead Of Starting At Alleyn’s School, late August 1973 –Day Fourteen: Rimini & Then Home

For the context, itinerary and links for this entire holiday, click here or the link below:

The cruise was advertised as a fifteen day holiday, but as I named the initial travel day “Day Zero” I think I have accounted for them all.

I have no idea whether the pirate party was actually the last night party, but they are the only photos I haven’t yet used.

We have fewer than 90 photos of the whole trip – times have changed. More recently, I have a feeling I have had meals that have yielded more photos than that, albeit perhaps adding together the snaps taken by several diners.

I look as jolly as a jolly roger

The quality of my dancing has been consistent throughout the decades

I remember almost nothing about the journey home. We were tired. We had very much enjoyed our holiday. I was super-excited (to use the modern phrase) about starting at Alleyn’s School a few days after our return.
