some mail for us, and we took it back to the hotel & read it until tea time. My but it is good to have mail once again.
After tea I went over to pay the Magnus sisters a visit. Dick was still feeling a little upset so he didn't go. The sisters are all still up and kicking. The dont seem to have anyone in the house at present and they said they would take us for [[symbol for franc]] 5/10/ a week if we stayed less than a month, and [[symbol for franc]] 5/ if we stayed a month.

We had a nice visit and I got [[strikethrough]] home [[/strikethrough]] back to the hotel a little after seven.
Dick greeted me with the news that they had sent a 3/ check for tea up with the waiter when he came for the tray. That annoyed us not a little.
