Things are beginning to stir. Had to get passports, landing cards and vaccination certificates. Did ironing, more washing and also packing.

Had services in Thode's room. Rev. Klein preached.

Bobby is much better. He had a haircut today.

Dr. Cooper took a picture of all the children today. We took snaps yesterday.

Heard that we are to get in at 10 a.m. Tuesday. It will be very exciting.
