Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Notes of a Tour in India and Ceylon: During the Winter of 1888-89 Friday, Dec. 7th, 1888. - Yesterday R. and I arrived at First Avenue Hotel in London from Leeds; B - e and I - a travelled with us. Dr. G - t the only other passenger in our carriage; we all lunched in the train. A - t came to see us; then R. and I went to Silver´s etc., B - n came to stay all night, he, B - e, C - e and B - y dined with us. R. had bought us sweet violets at Peterborough, and I had brought chrysanthemums from Quarrydene. We spent a pleasant evening. J. and M. H - g dropped in after dinner, they had been at O. P - e´s wedding. And now we have actually started! M - y, R - d, F - rd and Cie, May and I - a came to Liverpool station to see us off; F - d, A - y, C - e and B - y came on to the docks with us, and several of K - y´s people came to see her off. Most of the sailors are Lascars; they have blue cotton coats, white trousers, coloured handkerchiefs round their waists, and red turbans with embroidered tops. We have seen the Lock gate opening; very interesting. Glorious weather. Moon risen. Have seen sea gulls. Have spoken to Miss D - r or rather Mrs. S - s. We have a deck cabin, measuring six feet by eight. I think we are very clever to stow away things in it as we have done, in such a small space. A. G´s cabin pocket very useful. Saturday, Dec. 8th. - Writing on deck; some people ill already. Rather cold in saloons; we have meals in what is called Ladies´ Saloon, but gentlemen are there; too near the cabins for meals, I consider, but the big saloon is full, and we cannot change places at present.
