CHRIS SETS SAIL!
I'm pretty sure when you were in
school years ago you probably heard
the rhyme.."In 14 hundred and 92
Columbus sailed the ocrean blue."
Well this was the very day that voyage
began! August 3rd., 1492! Columbus
had hoped to find a short route to the
far east. Instead he had the first cruise
to Bermuda! Many have cruised there
since! He is known for discovering
the Americas (and telling people
about what he found!) He commanded
three ships. The Nina, the Pinta, and
the Santa Maria. I've always geard there
was a forth vessel.....but it sailed off the
end of the square earth! Who knows?
In any case that's today's history lesson.
Hope all your NEWS is good!
