igyekv6 motorcsonakokat, amelyek kiran-
dul6 utasokat a parttol haj6ra szalli-
tottak.
Sorra nezte az erkez6 utasokat, de egy
sem volt kozottGk olyan, aki figyelmet ma
CARA vonhatta volna.
Aztan hirtelen egy kiilOnos es egyalta-
Ian mem mindennapi jelenseg bukkant fel,

hogy jobb hijjan kisse rendet csinaljon a

A not megpillantva azonban egyszerre
megvaltoztatta szandekat es kes6bbre ha-
lasztotta a rendcsinalast.
Egyel0re sokkal jobban izgattta ez
szokatlan ielenseg, semhogy kedve lett
volna elmozdulni a helyer6l.
A holgy - mint ait Matyas Ferenc
egy sebteben elcsipett stewardtol megtud-
ia - Marchesa Gigandi volt, azonban
szemmel lathatolag tudomast sem vett ar

Lassankent az utolso kis vonalfoszlany

mintha betelt volna nezel6dessel, lassu,
nyugodt leptekkel megindult a fedelzeten,
