1:The first voyage of Champlain was in 1603

2:Santa Fe New Mexico was founded in 1610

set sail on a Friday

I think it was a good idea going west so they would know about us and that we would know about them.

Brought horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, and diseases to the New world

Brought turkey,tomatoes, cocoa,corn,potatoes, beans, and slaves back to Europe

Waited a long time before someone would give him a ship

Opened the way for European colonization of the americas

Waited for Spain's war to end before he could sail

Thought he landed in China but he was really in the Bahamas

King of Portugal turned him down

Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand of Spain paid for his ships

Sailed west to reach the east. People thought he was crazy.

In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue

Martin Pinzon was his captain

Crew wanted to mutiny

33 days to find land

Proved you can do what you set your mind to do

Always wanted to be a sailor
