The Trip to Siam: The Ship to Honolulu

The Trip to Siam: The Ship to Honolulu

Kenneth and Margaret describe their sea trip to Honolulu. They read letters from that trip about their daily schedules, the food they ate, the activities they had, and the many people they met. Margaret remembers an elderly lady, the gayest person on the ship, who was touring the world all by herself. The Landons also met a few people who were in missions.
