在英国所有的承包旅游中,“Butlin的欢乐假日(Butlin's 'jolliday')”是最**的。这些充满活力的照片表现了Butlin's 'jolliday'****,和有点儿悲喜剧相交的特征。60年代曾经在Butlin's工作的Lewis于1982年回到Skegness营地,因为那个时候最初的景象正在开始渐渐消失。20世纪30年代,比利•布特林(Billy Butlin)创造了自己的度假胜地,当时英国工人首次获得带薪假期,许多家庭都被可能享有的单人小屋,剧院和游泳池而吸引。他们非常愉快地忍受了英国潮湿的夏天,然而在80年代,花费不高的欧洲旅行和真正的阳光渐渐对这种承包旅游产生了影响。
These vibrant photographs capture the unique and somewhat tragi-comic character of the most well-
known of all British package holidays: the Butlin's 'jolliday'. Lewis, who worked at Butlin's in the 60s, returned to the Skegness camp in 1982 when the original vision was beginning to fade. Billy Butlin created his holiday attraction in the 1930s, when British workers were granted paid holidays for the first time and families were drawn by the promise of individual chalets, a theatre and a swimming pool. They endured the wet British summers with great joy but in the 80s the lure of affordable European travel and real sun took its toll.
