"Unpleasantly, I shall admit- when I first washed ashore, I had wondered if I were back in England! ....though now of course, I know it to be otherwise..." It was an unpleasant way to arrive, to put it quite lightly. "If that's also how you arrived, then I can't imagine it would have been a fine time."
