Hunter Family Diary 1928

This blog contains the 1928 Diary of my mother, Iris Hunter and her sister Nora Hunter. At the time of it's writing, they were attending Bournemouth High School, a boarding school for girls in Bournemouth, England. It was their final year after which they would be returning to their home in Shanghai, China. Iris turned 17 in Feb of that year and her sister would be 16 in July. I've transcribed it as written along with any photos that were pasted into the diary. I've also added in a few photos

September 17

17 Monday (261-105)

We went to Cook's at 9:30 a.m.and took a Charie for Rapallo etc. The other family of Hunters and Mrs Gomersall were also with us. The trip was really worth it. We went along the coast to the Lido, Pieve, Santa Margherita, Portofino and Rapallo. At the latter we had lunch ( Hotel Savoy ) The meal was good. From there we went on to Paradiso Gardens and had a magnificent view through a telescope of the towns on the Eastern Riviera. After that we returned to Cook's, then had tea in a restaurant. Then we returned to the ship.
