The sisters got up early at 6:30. They tried to get breakfast but the (American Express) man arrived before the breakfast came. Much confusion and hurry but they got on to the train all right. In a compartment with 3 others. Had an expensive lunch. Got to Le Havre about 1:30, beautiful. Easy to get on to the tender, also on to the “Berengaria”. A very large boat {her word}.
Sailed about 3. They walked around a lot. They had a lot of time to waste before dinner at quarter of eight.
Beautiful full moon with just enough clouds to be lovely.

A better day – some sunshine. She was busy getting participants for various tournaments and talking with various people, including crew members. She played, and won, 2 rounds of the shuffleboard tournament. After Libby went to bed she had a “wild” time with one of the crew. ( Hmm – is this my mother at age 22?)
