Jeptha Homer Wade Travel Journals: Germany July 18 to October 16, 1914

Page 05: July 26-27, 1914

July 26 Cloudy windy day with
showers. Jep + took long walk in
morning. Got a good landau
+ pair in P.M. + drove for 2 hours
around the basins through the
business section and along the
river. The planting + arrangement
of the flowers in the gardens
of the residences facing the outer
basin are the finest I have
ever seen. In its number of
parks + water courses overhung
by beautiful trees Hamburg is
unique. I know of no other
city like it. Geraniums of
all shades, predominate for
vases + window boxes.
Jep + I walked through the
beautiful botanical garden
afterward. Dined in rest.
Few in evening dress.
July 27 Went to Am Ex Found
car had not been unboxed so
the manager went with Jep +
Jack + took car to garage
after passing custom house
In P.M. we got papers at Ex
Co Tryptych for Germany
