5th July 1934
Norina, Kitty, Delia and Tod arrived in Dover by train, and Baba and the mandali boarded the ferry with them to cross the English Channel. Arriving in Ostend at four in the afternoon, they had a pleasant stroll around the town before boarding the Brussels Express for Zurich at six-thirty. Baba had often traveled lower class, but this time he found the wooden benches of third class to be uncomfortable and it was evident that he was not able to rest properly throughout the night.
