213 Thursday Oct 30th,- Pleasant morning, no signs of the Steamer yet, as have nothing else to do, I mended my coat & pants, torn on the trip across from San Juan- there is several passengers stoping here intending to go up, in the Boat we came down from San-Francisco in- some 10 or a dozen Ladies in the company- they will probably leave here this afternoon, or tomorrow, - have showers here in the Evening.- Friday Oct 31,- Pleasant and very warm this morning- the passengers that were stoping here bound for Cal, left this morning- and as we had nothing else to do we were watching their movements etc- much, to the great, annoyance of the Ladies, as most of them were dressed in pants and were to ride on Gentlemens Saddles //One Says/, I do wish, those men would go away, not stand there watching us,- we could see they were not used to such a trip as this, and assured them, should they cross here again, they would not be so particular as now- from our discription of the ride across etc they rather dreaded to start, however they all left after a long while we gave them three cheers as they started- and make up our mind they would not be quite so particular on their arrival at San Juan. should the Gentlemen look at them there- no signs of the steamer yet, for us-
