San Francisco
March 7th, 1860
Today, people on the USS Powhatan are leaving. As much as they enjoyed their time here in San Francisco; they have to go on to their next destination, Panama. Many Americans escorted the people that are boarding Powhatan to the dock. If it wasn’t for the delay of Kanrin Maru, we would be leaving as well. But for now, our visit here is extended for a few weeks to a month. Although San Francisco is a great place, I can’t wait to see the rest of America. Many American officers told me that New York is a fabulous city, which is perfect because that is one of the places we’re going to.

Hopefully you will be able to join them soon, and I am delighted you find the United States, such an interesting place.
