Whilst looking through old photos last week (when I posted one of my husband rock climbing) we came across photos of our holiday in Budva in what was then Yugoslavia. We had a wonderful holiday even if I was feeling sick every evening, which I thought was ‘holiday tummy’ until we returned home and realised I was pregnant.
In this photo I have long, dark curly hair (a very curly perm which fortunately was nearly grown out) – sadly it’s now grey! It was the era of the mini-skirt and hot pants, but here I’m covered head to foot in a delightful yellow creation, borrowed from one of the other holiday makers to cover up when changing out of my bikini.
And here we are in Dubrovnik with the owner of the ‘cover-up’ on the left of the photo. I’m the one second from the right next to my husband.

I remember having perms…I loved the curly look. Mine tended to grow out a lot, too.
Love the retrospective! And your new blog header….

Margaret, love the mini-dress! And the setting. You guys look very happy. Perms – can’t believe we ever did them. I, too, had perms for a while and it was definitley not a good look for me!! LOL

Terrific memories in pictures. I had my share of perms as well:)
Thanks for your expression of sympathy at the loss of our cat Libby:(

The yellow coverup reminds me of two elderly ladies we saw in Hawaii years ago who could have used a coverup. They just nonchalantly changed clothes on the beach in full view of everyone! Since they were old enough that gravity had taken over, if you know what I mean, everyone quickly looked away again. 😀
I love your old pictures. Such a beauty you were (and are), and I’m sure glad the upset tummy was morning sickness. At least it was for a good cause.

I always liked those big beach cover-ups. Old photos are so much fun to look through.
