Dr. Jules Jacot-Guillarmod Diary Entry

Sunday, 30 July 1905

 

 

 

Train and steamboat crossing of the Ganges.

     

We go up to the bridge where we are supposed to have dinner but mosquitoes and birds of all sizes and types make it almost physically impossible for you. We only see people spitting a grasshopper swallowed with soup or making desperate efforts to get a beetle or lepidoptera out of their nose or ears.
