I am so glad to be out of Puerto Rico, the loss of my title of governor of Puerto Rico to that low life Diego Columbus is embarassing. However we have been sailing for eleven days now. A storm broke out and the deck of the Santa Maria and my ship the Santiago. I had the crew remove the water with buckets. Luckily no damage was done. Sailing is hard, the blue of the ocean and the blue of the sky are the same color here. The lack of a noticeable horizon makes one dizzy. One of the young deckhands, who has never worked on a boat before learned he had seasickness and is now always throwing up, and now another man has fallen overboard. However the rest of the crew is very strong and are hard workers. Luckily the food is still plentiful and conditions are fair. This should not be an extraordinarily hard voyage.
