Dearest Diary,

Upon the conclusion of the lessons this afternoon, it was decided we would journey to the western coastlands in order to observe a cricket match and to observe the rays of sun as it set. While such scenery is quite lovely at the particular time of day, it was unfortunate that we had not made it for the cricket match and we therefore paused at an inn for dinner and some fishing. Although the waters were well-stocked, we left with naught but two tiny goldfish. Fortunately, a dear friend had also taken respite at the inn and her company was a welcome thing to behold. However, it is now rather late of hour and I shall be required at the schoolhouse quite early on the morrow...

Dearest Diary,

It is not beneath me to state that there are in fact some handsome figures who participate in the sport of Cricket. And the team I favoured certainly remained victorious in today's match. Additionally the event proved successful when sister and I were permitted to peruse the markets where we purchased new bonnets in order to shade ourselves from the Rays of sun. It could not have been a more pleasant afternoon. The evening ended well with a full course meal at the Robert Evans estate and a visit with the hounds. Lady Pigeon and I have retired upstairs and are eagerly anticipating the weekly services, which we - or rather I - shall attend on the morrow...

Dearest Diary,

The affair at the Delancey estate was quite the success. It was garnished with unusual delicacies such as pies named for the moon and apples sliced in the shape of the same. All who were in attendance were most pleased, I believe. Prior to such extravagance, however was a visit to the river for a swim as well as a stop at the schoolhouse. It is fortunate that I am able to journey to such a destination so frequently through the summer months. It brings much Happiness to visit with the other schoolmasters and children who must reside through the holiday.

The weekend promises a game of cricket and a trip once again to the more coastal regions. The cricket match begins on the morrow...
