That's what I'm thinking, too -- and even before the establishment of the W.D.R., they had to get there and back, so she might have hired a fishing boat ... :D
Of course -- I just meant even if the W.D.R. hadn't been around, she might have found a mode of transportation ... (thinking of Elizabeth of Arnim going from Rügen to Hiddensee, for example)!
Someway or another she would have found a way on the island, I´m sure about that ;).
Reading about Elizabeth von Arnim reminds me that I haven´t read Elizabeth and her German garden yet. I might try to buy the beautiful vintage edition of this book while being in London *making mental note to myself*
Wonder how McDowell ever came up with *that*??!!
