My country ‘tis of thee. It’s been a beautiful day but cold. Pop came in and woke me up at seven this morning. At seven thirty I was on the passengers bridge watching the first point of land come into view. It was quite exciting. I stood and watched until at least nine thirty except for a few minutes spent in eating breakfast. About nine thirty the trunks were brought in and I packed until lunch time. After lunch I watched the land go by and a train. Then I went in the cabin to rest and June came in and wanted me to play Black Jack with her and Henry. About three thirty I changed my dress because they had to take my trunk out. Except for the time they spent in packing everybody spent the time on deck watching dry land. We had supper at six but we were just getting to the breakwater so I was too excited to eat. I went on deck instead. We stopped to pick up the pilot. Then just before we got to the pier we stopped again to pick up the doctor and customs officers. We docked just at eight. At eight thirty we stopped in front of the Hotel Miramar San Pedro. Oh, it’s grand and glorious.
