Sunday 13th



When we woke up we were anchored off quarantine. About seven we were all lined up for inspection by the quarantine officers and during breakfast the ship moved inside the breakwater to the inner harbor. We all went ashore and the whole crowd hired rickshaws and did up the town until lunch. After tiffin we went ashore again and got measured for khaki and duch suits. There we took rickshaws and visited the Yoshivara. ___ the best and we stayed there about an hour. Came back to the ship and stayed aboard in the evening. It rained all day. There are a number of warships in the outer harbor including the Wisconsin, Ohio, Raleigh, Charleston, the German battleship Hausa and the French battleships. The Empress of China came in and moored near us during the afternoon.
