March 24,1513



I have decided to leave the Bahamas in search of Bimini. I have stayed here long enough and these islands have already been claimed for Spain. My crew gathered fruits for the trip. The fruit won’t last long but it will prevent scurvy for the time being. Five people have already contracted the illness. My crew is listening well and working hard. This should not be a long voyage but it should be very fruitful. There were a few fights between my crewmembers. I will bring honor to Spain with my soon-to-be findings. The glorious kin Ferdinand will be pleased.
