Wednesday, 30 May 1860
At Paris by 6. ― Nothing opened. To Hotel Louvre. Breakfast ― & dawdling. ― Cloudy wetty day.
At 10 to Station: at 11 off to Boulogne. ―
There by 5.30. Boat. Italian refugees. ― Cornwall Leghs. ― No rain in passage ― & short: but roughish. Start at 7.20. At Folkestone by 8.19. ――
But, being in a crowd, ― it was 10 or more before Customhouse was passed ― very politely & well. Supped at the Pavilion, & was glad to get to bed.
