And They Said It Wouldn't Last / Y Dijeron Que No Duraría

La versión español está después de la primera foto.

AUGUST 16, 1982, San Geraldo and I celebrated our first anniversary with a big, catered party in our landlord's garden in Beacon Hill, Boston, in the State of Massachusetts. Last night, we celebrated our 37th anniversary with a dinner at Mesón Salvador a few streets away from home here in Los Boliches, Fuengirola, in the Province of Málaga. Never in my wildest imaginings.



EL 16 DE Augosto 1982, San Geraldo y yo celebramos nuestro primer aniversario con una gran fiesta abastecida en el jardín de nuestro propietario en Beacon Hill, Boston, en el estado de Massachusetts. Anoche, celebramos nuestro 37° aniversario con una cena en Mesón Salvador aquí en Los Boliches, Fuengirola, en la provincia de Málaga. Más allá de mi imaginación.

      Definitely worth every minute. But you know, love birds can get really nasty sometimes... and they have very sharp little beaks!
