SUNSHINE IN SPAIN DAY ONE

DAY ONE My break away started with a laugh as usual with Lynda trying to get in the wrong car for our airport lift. People say ‘dumb blonde’ and I must admit I think it should be dizzy or dozy to describe Lynda. But the best thing is that we always have a fun time when together or away.
