Hi Nurse
I know exactly how your wife felt, as I felt the same. On our first day, my friend and I sat on the beach with her parents and we both had so many mixed emotions as everyone else around us were topless. Whilst we wanted to be in the same undressed state as everyone else was, our upbringing screwed with our minds so we went for a walk. As soon as her parents could not see us, taking a deep breath, and with hearts pounding we took our bikini tops off, showing ourselves to the world. I thought I would be embarrassed, but it all seemed perfectly natural and we walked around everyone else for an hour of so when we decided to return to her parents and food. On our way back we made the decision with we would be rebellious and remain topless. When we returned the biggest barrier just evaporated - her father, he never said a word, it was her mum that went off on one. It got so heated that her husband took her off and mum and dad had a big row, and when they returned she was very chasten. In the afternoon we walked up to the promenade to bye a drink and I remember to this day standing in line talking to some boys and then asking the drink seller for some cans nearly naked and not feeling the slightest bit shy or embarrassed, something I thought I would ever do.
The next day, we returned to the beach. I never picked it up at the time, but the father kept making very barbed and pointed comments to his wife about wearing the same as the girls. Around dinnertime she took her top off and you could tell by her body language she was not happy. At the end of the day when we were going to return top the hotel she started to put her top on, but we grabbed it, held her hands and marched her up the beach.
That night none of us wore a bra, and many buttons were undone. After we had all gone to bed, I heard lots of stifled moans coming from the parents room. The next morning they come of of the room with broad smiles on their faces. Things got even better as we were so relaxed that after my friend and I had showered we came out of the bathroom naked totally unashamed at our nudity in front of the adults and later that week they followed suit, although I paid the price. On my return home, I went out showing as much cleavage as I had shown on holiday and got grounded for a month.
