Fine sunny A.M.
Big white-caps waves - very pretty. Took pictures, watched them play on deck, "etc".. Towards new I got a little sick. Threw up a little ( Threw up a couple of times after the first time, yesterday) and went to cabin and slept again till we were near Frisco. The boat sure did roll some in the A.M. sometimes so much that you could hardly stand on deck (like this) [drawing of boat keeled over]. Yesterday after leaving Flavail we passed a boat and it sure did roll - 1st I have ever seen tossed upon the ocean blue.

Very cool in Frisco esp. in morning and evening. Foggy in A.M. till 10 or 11 o'clock.
Went down and had SS. Co. telegraph for our tickets that a conductor took and didn't give back at Portland. Then out to The Expo and walked and saw all day and evening. Home about 9 and to bed.
