　　Chapter 27 UNEXPECTED VISITORS
　　LUCIAN was perfectly1 right. He didn't know the way, and he couldn't find the boats. He wascompletely hopeless. He simply wandered here and there, making towards the sea, but arriving at arocky beach where no boats could possibly lie.
　　"You're a mutt," said Jack3, in disgust.
　　"Mutt!" said Kiki, pleased with the word. "Mutty! Send for the doctor."Nobody smiled even at this. They were all too disappointed and disgusted with poor Lucian. Helooked ready to cry.
　　"It's not my fault," he said with a sniff5. "If I'd known it was going to be so important I'd have takencareful note of the way. But I didn't know.""Now look here — if you start to blub again I'll park you down a rabbit-hole, and stuff it up withseaweed," said Jack, in disgust. Lucian looked alarmed.
　　"I would remember if I could," he said dismally6. "But I do tell you this — nobody can come or gofrom these islands in a boat without a seaman7 who knows, the way. There are hundreds of rocks justbelow the surface of the sea. Even an experienced seaman finds it difficult. I know, because I've sooften visited them with my uncle."
　　Jack looked at him. "Well — I believe you about that," he said. "I shouldn't care to navigate8 a boatmyself without a sailor who knew the way. Gosh — we're really beaten now — no boats — and if wehad them we'd probably wreck9 ourselves. A very poor outlook indeed!"Lucy- Ann immediately had a vision of themselves and Mr. Eppy and his friends remaining onThamis Island for years and years! She sighed.
　　"I wish I'd never bought that ship in a bottle for Philip," she said. "If I'd known it was going to bringus such an adventure I'd have thrown it away!"They began to make their way back to the city. As they went, Jack stopped and looked up at the sky.
