Saturday, 31 July 1858
At 3½ went in the Midge with F. ― good wind ― & with one tack, reached S. Giovanni about 5½. ― This place is very lovely ― the profusion of vegetation!― & then we walked on, by Izaki ― & Benizza ― the dear old aqueduct walk to the Ferry ― among them at 8 ― & [so] in Corfu by 9. Dinner nearly at 10! ― In berth went fast asleep afterwards ― & woke at 1!
