107 Sab, Oct 9 I was up at about six and had my bath and soon after breakfast I walked out through the post, a most delightful place. Bought two shells of a More and then wandered on out the sea wall and collected some shells; some one stole the chambled mantifus that I had just bought. I got back to the hotel in time for lunch. Soon after lunch I took the road out to San Jose which led me down to the track and then I followed up the shore and collected many shells. Had to take off my clothes to get across one stream. Got back in time to change before dinner. After dinner MS. M. Bulteons and I went around and called on Mr. Cameron, the engineer when I found work interesting Come home at about 10 and went to bed.
