"Seventeen was a thrilling age to travel. Meeting new people was fun - Kit, on the boat, and Jennifer, so different from Nancy's American friends, who showed her a part of English life she would otherwise never have seen. Then there were the interesting girls from India who were stopping at the same London hotel. To be shown London and the English countryside by Felix, a real Lord, was especially exciting. The grandeur of Salisbury Cathedral and Stonehenge at sunset, the Cotswolds, Warwick and Kenilworth were all brilliant bits that made the summer a gorgeous kaleidoscope for Nancy."
