“Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see.”

Visiting the Niña

In fourteen hundred ninety-two
Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
He had three ships and left from Spain…

Several days ago we had a cool opportunity to see a replica of Columbus’ favorite ship, the Niña.
I was so surprised at how small she was. I can’t imagine being at sea for such a long on such a small ship…

Her bow…

Niña's bow

Niña's bow

Her stern…

Niña's stern

    I was thinking exactly what mom wrote when I was looking at your photos. Then I saw that she left a post about making Tim and me loath Columbus. I still do. It makes me a little jaded, but your photos still are beautiful. I'll have to show Tim them.

    Cool pics. Where did you see the Niña?

    My kids HATE any talk about Columbus. When we were new homeschoolers, I was very zealous. More was better certainly applied to my teaching style.So, I showed exposed them to every book, article, movie, art project,curriculum, and hands-on activity I could find. I loved it. Them? Not so much. Over-eating to the point of vomiting is never a good thing and doesn't leave a pleasant after-taste.

Speak Your Mind
