Everybody was well rested after our strenous [sic] trip and enjoyed today as a day of rest. We played bridge, Matt, Leroux, and I most of the afternoon. The river was rising some and continued to rise when it rained heavily during the afternoon and evening. Dick prepared some fried bananas and they were delicious. We started estimating when the mail would be here and some were of the opinion it would be on the next transport which is due to arrive Thursday or Friday. It can [sic] be but because we are so anxious to get it[,] the next transport after the coming one will probably have it. It was cloudy both morning and evening so we did not see the high mountains.
