Jack and Jill (my birds) were very good travellers, but naturally rather fright ned at the cars and [[boats?]].

June 10th 1890. Tuesday.
A very nice day for London, and the boys Martha and I went to the Serpentine to row. Coming home I bought a very nice cage for Jack and Jill, and was delighted to have the pleasure of taking them out of the little cage. It rained so this afternoon that I could only get measured at Nicoles, & go to the Grosvenor Gal[[insertion]]l [[/insetion]] ery. Some of the pictures were very pretty and well painted, but a good many I thought just the contrary.
