Birdie checked out the cart and good pony that Child had brought back from the stables, and paid her back the let fee. It looked to be just what they needed, a large two-wheel cart with a driving bench and not too deep sides.
She took an old cloak that Rose had lent her and threw it around Kali. "That should do to cover most of you, the feet look a little bare, but we'll be riding in style most of the time, not walking, so no one should notice."
"Ask whatever questions you please, and we'll go whereever you like, if the cart will pass. But let me do the talking!"
"But what of Levanto?" asked Kali.
Bird held up another cloak and cloth half-mask. "We'll pick him up farther down the weir, where there are not so many people."
"Now", Birdie called up to the ship, "Who's coming with us to see the sites?"
