In 1492



and again off Madeira, in pouring rain. Just as my sister was there the other day, with camera at the ready, along came the Santa Maria..... Well, a replica thereof. Well, a good stab at what a replica might look like if anyone really knew. 

Astonishingly small, dwarfed by a cruise ship. Columbus, intrepid sailor and slave trader (click on the words for the link, as it doesn't show up highlighted) would have been impressed.
