English Church, and sight seeing,

I got so excited studying last night that I didn’t sleep last night very well, so it was late before I got started.

I went to the English church. There was no minister but they had a lay service and I liked it very much. It was slow and reverent. It was dark and began to rain before I got home. Then Helen came in; she had been to the Brera gallery.

I cleaned the spots of my white dress and Helen cleaned hers. Then we had our usual lunch of eggs, milk, rolls, and fruit and cake. I lay down and slept nearly two hours. It rained at intervals all day, and sometimes poured. About 6, we started to take the train that goes around the city. We went ¾ of the way around when it began to lighten and to rain hard so we got out of the car and went upon the Porta Venezia, and stayed there until the storm broke – then we took No. 26 train back to Via Brera – there we went to the Cooperative restaurant upstairs and found it crowded. No meat was left but roast veal so we left and went down stairs and had dinner in the restaurant below where we sat in the Vittorio Emmanuelle and watched the crowds.

Came back about 10 – Did not take a lesson today because it was Sunday. Read a column of the paper with difficulty.
