Description
Printed on reverse: Welcoming crowds gather to gree the daily arrivals from the mainland with cheerful songs and laughter. In Avalon's gaily tiled Fountain Plaza, with its bowers of palm and olive trees, and the soft music of troubadours, it is a place where the realism of everyday life is unimportant. It is a place to play, to dream, to let the rest of the world go by.
