On the Sunday they went to a gun battery that was developed by the Germans during WW2 and spent the full day there. It was now Sunday evening―ten at night specifically―and Alice was waiting for Ruby to get out of the shower so that she could surprise her.

They would go in the night and come back in the morning before anyone woke, no one finding out where they went.
