Dearest Hodinus and even dearer Beautyfull one,
We are travelling from one museum to the next, to-morrow again. Mycene, Knossos afterwards a little rest at Aegina, in three weeks about we shall be home. I could not get a postcard of that marvelous sculpture called Leonidas, anyhow he lived about the time of the sculpture and came from here. We always love to be in Greece again but hope to see you both in London afterwards.
Love and kindest thoughts, OK - Format
