Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll
Chapter 2 - The Pool of Tears
As she said these words her foot slipped, and in another moment, splash! she was up to her chin in salt water. Her first idea was that she had somehow fallen into the sea, `and in that case I can go back by railway,’ she said to herself. (Alice had been to the seaside once in her life, and had come to the general conclusion, that wherever you go to on the English coast you find a number of bathing machines in the sea, some children digging in the sand with wooden spades, then a row of lodging houses, and behind them a railway station.)
Вспомнил, что когда я в детстве читал книжку в переводе Демуровой, это «в море - кабинки для купания» мне казалось опечаткой, потому что представлялись привычные кабинки для переодевания на пляже. А оказывается, и правда для купания.
