Saturday, 27 January 1917 [1918]
No pass allowed to me as only here 4 months. Fare £3-16-0. However I go, come what may. Off for ½ day & the last of the ward for a week.
Town 2.30 p.m. shopped, bought camera case 12/6, back 27th 6.30 p.m., waited till 7.40 p.m. for 14th people then picked up by Matron & S. Murphy & officer & flew to R. [Railway] Station in 27 minutes & caught train & so away out of old Cairo once more & free again.
Slept fairly well, 3 in carriage. Dining car on train – very elaborate, food good & well servcd., Pt. 28 or thereabouts.
Such lovely moonlight & flat fields with palms showing straight & clear. My companions are tired out but one cannot wonder, they have packed all day.
