I am glad to hear you are finally free from cares away from France and get back to London. Mr. Dunn had such a good time. As yet I have had even fewer chances to see foreigners here, but the few I have seen wear "pants." This is a dull letter and hardly worth sending; but it does take my love to you which I am in Saumur. A month from today we shall be sailing toward home! Your friend, Daddy W. Ewing San Servan, Bretagne, France. Alice dear, It is Sunday afternoon and as I sit here at my window unlooking the pretty town & bay it seems almost as if I had gone back to Italy and was looking over the Bay of Naples. It is very beautiful and I am enjoying so much. My thoughts have been way over the water today even more than usual, perhaps youreller and me from Violes which came last night together have taken possession of me for certainly I've decided longing in that direction. But the time is
Going very fast and in a few weeks this trip will be over. You have no idea how almost ideas it has been. Everything seems to have favoured us, the weather, the roads, the country and all. We keep saying one and one, "Oh isn't it lovely." Lucie & I landed in France & you had a good deal of fun; so began with us failed to draw enough money to carry us through easily to the next place where we could get money, and our scheming and planning to pull through on luck has been amusing. One day we have coffee & rolls for breakfast and for lunch tea & boiled eggs and bread and that night we settled up a hotel where we could get a cheap room & dinner! Then the French we make some funny mistakes occasionally. The other morning when I asked for my Mek bie, she was thought I wanted soft boiled eggs; ask Victor to tell you how ever got locked in our room & had the cut out! I make a point of opening conversation at table with reputable looking people; yesterday the Ma'am thought I was asking him if he had to buy
