This morning at the beach with de Plancy, Da Costa, the princes etc. the afternoon the same. In the evening theater with Judic and dancing. We ran from one to the other. I was furious for I wanted a box where one could hide and instead of that we had an open one, charming for showing off one's dress.
It is Berthe and my aunt who remained there, I stayed but little and standing before the door, it would be amusing if I were not so furious. Since Berthe has been here we are enjoying ourselves and I have not a minute for my memoirs, poor posterity! There they are calling me to supper in the courtyard.
