2 October 1890 — Ca’ Capello, Venice | |
Thursday. 2nd October [1890]. Finished making patterns for Blanche. After lunch I went over to the Empress & made her a present of a piece of my needle work a goblin pattern on a black ground a piece to cover a small chair. Mme Noce & Mr Moore came to the launch & we all went out with the Princesses to S. Nicoletto. The Empress had gone to draw at the P. Lungo Giudecca & after depositing our party Ola & I returned to fetch her. At the Arsenal we stopped & picked up Admiral Noce & when we joined the Empress Ola got out & went home with Mme Bruhl as she was to go to the station with Henry to meet her father Ruth & Mama who were arriving from England. We went back to S. Nicoletto & had tea & then walked to the Elisabetta & from there home in the steam launch. It was quite dark & 7 o’cl when we got in but the travellers had not arrived & only came abt 7.30. After dinner the whole party except Henry, Mama & I went out to the Piazza & took the Psses with them. We went early to bed– | |
