We paid one guide and paid for one muleteer to each donkey.
The mountains on some of the islands are very high.

We sailed along the shore of the island of Pico, under a stately green pyramid that rose up with one unbroken sweep from our very feet to an altitude of 7,613 feet, and thrust its summit above the white clouds like an island adrift in a fog! We got plenty of fresh oranges, lemons, figs, apricots, etc., in these Azores, of course.

I am not here to write Patent Office reports.
We are on our way to Gibraltar, and shall reach there five or six days out from the Azores..
