On a different angle this thanksgiving, I try to imagine what it would be like sailing halfway across the world, in all kinds of weather, on a ship like this. Kind of amazing that people did that back then, but I guess they didn't have a choice. Can you imagine what it would be like to be surrounded by water for months, almost out of supplies, not even knowing if there's any place to "discover"? Remember, most of the crew thought they would fall off the world!
