seven o'clock in the morning
Mr. Fogg had neither gained nor lost a day . A Glimpse of San Francisco . A Political Meeting . At seven o'clock in the morning , Mr. Fogg and his companions landed in America , or rather upon the floating pier at which the steamers load and unload . There they mingled with ships and steamers of all nationalities , and steam ferry-boats with two or three decks which performed the service on the Sacramento and its affluents . Passe-partout was so delighted to reach America , that he thought it necessary to execute one of his most active leaps . But when he landed upon the quay , he found the planks worm-eaten , and he went through them .
