I'm still nervous about the journey. Mass was enjoyable and yet I still feel full of dread. I have heard tell of the political intrigue that occurs in England. Queen Mary has ascended the throne and I hear rumor that she wishes to restore the true faith to the Protestant tainted lands. After boarding the boat, I asked Olivio what he supposed our purpose was in all this. Together we speculated all notions of wonderous things. The boat rocked and swayed gently subduing any fears or stresses we had. After our evening supper, I have arranged to have song and cards ready, along with some fine wine. I usually prefer more time to prepare for a patron.
