Friday 15th August
Most unpleasant day out at sea, very rough & only one boat diving. Did not enjoy the trip.
Got back in time for lunch, had a good rest afterwards as I slept little last night.
Went to Budega in the evening, all seemed well out there but some sore backs among the horses.
Very cool owing to the strong breeze.
Saturday 16th August

Office, at the customs for some time, Ohliger came in with bills for Shaikhs hunting trips over Rs 2000, they
