On September 1, 1956, Elizabeth arrives in Athens and shares a room with a Miss Miller and two other ladies. On September 2-3, she visits Nauplia, where she stays at a Venetian prison that had been changed into a hotel, then goes back to Athens the next day. On September 5, she flies back home. The last sentence Elizabeth writes in her diary is, “Home is quiet but spacious.” The back of Elizabeth’s travel diary includes different sections such as articles purchased, expenses, people met, autographs, friends to write to, and memos. Her articles purchased list includes things like scarves, a dress, and necklaces. She lists where the items were purchased, how much they cost, and who they were for. The friends to write section includes the names of people that she met and wants to keep in touch with. Under the memos section she writes the names of all of her family and friends whom she got gifts for. Next to their name she wrote the gift she bought them.
