And another thing that surprised me when I got on board Kendal was who I was sitting next to — Not the queen; I can't imagine why they put me underneath her portrait — But around that dining table in the officer's saloon, I was sitting next to a Burmese guy, I was opposite a Romanian, a Moldavian, an Indian.
Otra cosa que me sorprendió a bordo del Kendal fueron mis compañeros — no la reina, no sé por qué me pusieron debajo de su retrato —. Alrededor de la mesa de comedor del salón de oficiales estaba sentada al lado de un birmano, y frente a un rumano, un moldavo, un indio.
