Francis Drake sailed here from the Pacific side in the 1570’s…
I doubt Roberto’s diner was in business with its fabulous cook or the Jade Mar Inn with her wonderful beds and warm showers.
The Howlers screamed at his arrival to no avail and the macaws would have sounded their alarms but the British were here and the Spanish not far behind…
The world was larger then due to its flatness.
