OH4 Santa Maria

Wow! Today we boarded the Santa Maria in Columbus, Ohio. A replica of the Columbus' ship from 1492.

What a small ship to sail the Atlantic!! This is a comparison to the 98' ship & an aircraft carrier!!!



Ladybug really liked the block & tackle display!! Hubbie enjoyed it too!!

Today we'd call the high look out the Eagle's Nest... There's a small ladder off the left side called Jacob's ladder too!!





I've looked and looked for a Columbus map... here the best of them for his first journey!!













It was a 2+ hour drive to the Santa Maria... I'm so glad we found our ship after wandering thru Columbus for a bit!! My GPS helped us get back on the right track... and it was right even when Grand'Pa disagreed.... Thanks Grands for helping us find it!!! Grace! ss
