On the ship



I really love this fresh air. And traveling, of course, too. But what I love the most is writing novels. No wonder me and my husband Jacques Futrelle became famous authors this genre. Jacques actually signed a contract about publishing his novel named "Thinking Machine". I am very proud of him.  I, Lily May Peel, married a good man.

Like in a fairytale

-



Hear woman´s laugh from our pink lounge, jingling of cups and a pervasive smell of herbal tea is spreading through the entire hallway. The doors are half open, so you can see beautiful women, charmingly sitting in their rich robes. But I keep walking, holding my long dress from the finest material. My necklace of colorful gems cools my neck and a few of naughty curls are falling down to my face. As I am walking in my satin pumps with buckle across the hallway, which is full of family  portraits, lighted candles on gold stands and brocade wall hangings, I take a breath of the familiar „historical smell“. Parquet floor is creaking. I go around my room, where my maids are humping the pillows and are opening a window to the garden. I am also passing our library full of books and the golden altar, on which we tend to pray. I am looking around decorated ceilings with historical and  religious themes and this view is  everytime so fascinating for me. I am going outside to the garden, where except for beautiful flowerbeds I am being welcomed also by peacocks, bathing in the fountain. And here, on the courtyard, my luxury carriage is waiting for me, so I am going to sit there with the assistance of a coachman. By the sound of galloping horses I am watching as I slowly lose our headquarters.
