We wanted to be there to receive it.

The trip was just wildly delirious.

The air was charming.
The sun was bright, and I had a whole holiday.

When we reached Ginx's we found that the best way to get our trunks and ourselves to our house was to take a carriage, and so we took one.

I told the driver to drive along the river road and I would tell him where to stop.
When we reached our boat, and had alighted, I said to the driver: "You can just put our trunks inside, anywhere." The man looked at the trunks and then looked at the boat.
