Sunday 17th March 1917 [1918]A day to be remembered long. One of those pretty soft blue sunny days, large white clouds lying in big masses overhead & the reflection of the palms in the water just perfect.Mr. Blundell & I rode back - & there too – together & had long talk, he is nice I fancy but no opinion yet until I know him better. A merry party we made with the familiar "coo-ee" waking the echoes of the ancient tombs of the dead bulls of 3,000 years ago. Such gay laughter & singing as we ride through the ruins of Memphis & stand on the statue of Ramses II to be photographed. Back to A.S.C. 6 p.m., dinner, church 7.30 p.m., room packed, sermon - "forgetfulness of God by us all". Back to Cairo in car 9 p.m.
