The exact opposite of Sydney is Melbourne, a quiet residential town. For some unknown reasons, the navigators were not able to bring the ship closer to town than the 45 minute train ride distance. After leaving the train at the Central Station, following through the subway, and rising to the street level, the American literally bumped into the mass of humanity. Having just come from the States, he, of course, forgot that the Aussies walk on the wrong side of the street . Ship ' s company checked up on souvenirs: Urban and Honor in the jewelers looking at opals, DesRosiers considering the purchase of a hand carved chess set, only to find that the store had been closed for an hour. Trees grew from the sidewalks of Elizabeth Street. Arm and arm, the ship ' s company and the Aussie girls giggled at each other ' s accents. Cline and Rowe had the misfortune of ordering doughnuts in a restaurant which sold American coffee.

J r In Sydney Captain E. P. Eldredge reported aboard after flying from San Francisco and relieved Captain P. P. Powell. The change of com- mand ceremony followed the standard order of procedure. Following the reading of orders, the new commanding officer shook hands with his officers as they were introduced to him.
