three in the morning
Our dinner may seem somewhat early , but then we were obliged to be up very early to enjoy the cool part of the day . '' But I will begin my next chapter with a description of our doings . The first person that awoke in the morning generally rose and opened the tent letting in the fresh sea breeze . This might be between two and three in the morning , and always the most refreshing part of the whole day . The first bathing party then went down to the sea , consisting of Schillie , the three girls , Madame , and myself . Before we were well out of the water , and finishing our toilettes under the tent , the boys used to come rushing down with Jenny in attendance , who was always fearing her heedless Master Felix would get into danger . Finally the three little girls , with both the maids , habited in readiness to dip the unwilling ones , finished the morning ablutions .
