Tuesday 16 May

Denise came at last yesterday evening. She tells me that I will be leaving tomorrow morning at 8. I had my baggage checked in.

Wednesday 17

At 8 o’clock, at the very moment I was to leave, Wham! I won’t leave until tomorrow. There is no train. I had fun.

Thursday 18

At last I’m leaving for Clermont Ferrand by way of Aurillac. Arrival at 12:30 a.m.

Friday 19

As there is a curfew, I am given a pass and go to the hotel. I’m staying in Clermont. Maybe I’ll leave tomorrow.

Saturday 20

I cannot leave yet. The weather is bad. I went to the fair.

Sunday 21

The weather is still lousy. I leave at 12:30 pm in the direction of Lyon by way of Vichy. I arrive at 8 p.m. I’m sleeping at the Red Cross and will continue onward tomorrow morning.
