@PanAdam1 Thank you, Drake and I plan on taking a vacation!

[Goda @218Francis1]

Thank you to everyone who has come along on this journey with me and Drake, you have officially somewhat been a part of us circumnavigating the world! Thank you!🥳#success #circumnavigating

[Goda @218Francis1]

@PanAdam1 I have not used them as spices yet, although they have been helpful when I get sick on the ship and need medicine for an upset stomach!

[Goda @218Francis1]

The one and only, Drake is back on the ship with a cargo of cloves! I’m guessing the treaty went well. We will be able to use them for any sick crew. Now, I think we can finally head back without any other stops!

This is what our trip looked like! Can't believe how rich we are now! :D

[Goda @218Francis1]

@PanAdam1 We have so much treasure already but there is always space for more!

[Goda @218Francis1]

We overheard that a huge treasure ship left 12 days ago to Panama. Drake loves treasure, so we set out to catch that ship! Wish us luck! #treasure

.We also made the first contact with the Miwoks and they were great people, hope to see them again soon! #missingmyfriends

[Goda @218Francis1]

Drake was awarded a knighthood by the Queen! I am so proud of him, this trip was amazing! The Spanish are not very happy with us… They are protesting saying that Drake committed huge amounts of piracy on their waters! If they ask me anything… I haven’t seen a thing. 🤫

[Goda @218Francis1]

At least we are back, even though we lost many crew members along the way, this voyage was a success! We are the first after Magellan to circumnavigate the world!! This is a great achievement for England overall! #homesweethome

[Goda @218Francis1]

We are finally back!!! Feels great to be home! We got back on September 26th, 1580. We also found out that the ship we lost in the storm successfully came back too. There was no celebration for our return… I guess they did not want to antagonize King Philip, so that’s alright!

[Goda @218Francis1]

Phew… it is all alright, the Golden Hind was able to slip off and we are back on course. #saved #WeAreBack

[Goda @218Francis1]

We have struck a reef!! It is January 9th, 1580 now, I’m really worried we might not be able to get out of this!

We arrived at Ternate in the East Indies on November 3rd. Drake left the ship, he said he is going to make a treaty with the Sultan, I’ll be waiting for his return on board! #Lonely

[Goda @218Francis1]

It’s October 16th now and Drake said he saw some land! We must get closer! #foundland

[Goda @218Francis1]

We’ve said our goodbyes to the Miwoks, I think we helped them out quite a bit! It is July 23rd and we have once again set out sail across the Pacific. Hopefully, we will be back in England soon! #homesick

[Goda @218Francis1]

I have to be honest, the Miwoks are great! We’re about to leave as we have stayed here since June and it is July now, we should be getting back to England, Drake says. I’ll be sad to leave them, but we must keep going! #goodbye #sad

[Goda @218Francis1]

The Miwoks gave us gifts, and Drake did his best to do so too. We gave them materials to cover up, sometimes I forget that there are people out there who have not yet advanced as much as we have! #gifts

[Goda @218Francis1]

I was right! There are people here! They are the Native Coast Miwok people, they are rather friendly. We set up camps as Drake plans to stay here for a month. Photo with my #newfriends!

[Goda @218Francis1]

Now we have reached San Francisco Bay! We have anchored here and found new land! Drake named it the New Albion and claimed it for the Queen, she will be happy! Although I think we are not alone on this land… #nervous

[Goda @218Francis1]

@PanAdam1 Thank you very much!

[Goda @218Francis1]

We passed many Spanish ships in the Pacific, Drake managed to seize them all. They were not prepared for our epic attack! We got so much treasure, and barely had to fight, haha! 🪙 #easy #ggwp
