The distance between Suez and Aden is precisely thirtcen hundred and ten miles, and the regulations of the company alłow the steamers one hundred and thirty-eight hours in which to sail it. The Mongolia, thanks to the cfforts of the engineer, seemed likely to reach her destination considerably within that time.		As for Passepartout, he, too, had escaped sea-sickness, and took his meals regularly in the forward cabin. He rather enjoyed the voyage, for he was well fed and well housed. 8.5. He also consoled himself with the thought that his master’s journey would end at Bombay. He was pleased, on the day after leaving Suez, to find on deck the friendly person with whom he had walked and chatted at the harbour. A.    Unlike Fogg, he took a great interest in the scenes through which they were passing. B.    But, if he thought of these possibilities, he did not show the fact by any outward sign. C.    Howeyer, the passengers had not, yet, suffered any real discomfort.
	Among the passengers was a number of officials and military officers. What with these military men, a number of rich young Englishmen on their travcls, and the hospitable efforts of the ship’s officers, the time passed ąuickly on the Mongolia. 8.1. Wonderful food was spread upon the cabin tables at brcakfast, lunch, dinner, and the eight o’clock supper and the ladies changed their clothes twice a day.		D.    Yes, the hours flew past, when the sea was tranąuil, with musie, dancing, and games. E.    How did this eccentric person pass his time on the Mongolia? F.    Then the ladies speedily disappeared below; the pianos were silent; singing and dancing suddenly stopped.
	But the Red Sea is fuli of surprises, and often wild, like most long and narrow gulfs. Wlien the wind came from the African or Asian coast, the Mongolia rolled fearfully. 8.2. Yet the good ship kept straight on, unworried by wind or wave, towards the straits of Bab-el-Mandeb.
	What was Phileas Fogg doing all this time? It might be thought that, in his anxiety, he would be constantly watching the changes of the wind, which might force the Mongolia to lessen her speed, and thus interrupt his journey. 8.3.
	Always the same calm man as he was back home in London, he passed through the memorable scenes of the Red Sea with cold indifference. He did not look at the historie towns and villages, he showed no fear of the dangers of the Arabie Gulf, which the old historians always spoke of with horror. 8.4. He ate his four good meals every day, regardless of the rolling of the steamer; and he played cards constantly, for he had found partners as enthusiastic in the gamę as himself. The four of them played, hour after hour, together in total silence.
