Quotation: Emma wrote diary excerpts about their travels, here she describes the hotel in Rouen: "'night dresses laid out on bed...2 large square pillows. Spring mattresses', and as they sat writing, the chambermaid coming into their room in her white cotton jacket and short petticoats, smiling and chattering, and bearing a pail to go under the washstand."
