We are dropping these pirate travel tags as we make our way across the Atlantic. We will visit Ponta Delgada Azores, Lisbon Portugal, Vigo Spain,La Coruna Spain, Le Havre France and Southampton England. The main mission of course is to be taken all over the world,and hopefully make it back to the states.
The most celebrated privateer of his time, Captain Drake sacked the Spanish army many times, often on the order of Queen Elizabeth I herself. Spain, his life-long, starkest foe, saw repeated devastation for he relentlessly sacked and plundered Spanish cities off the coast of Florida. He also sailed to North America and claimed new land on the Pacific coast for Queen Elizabeth, becoming the first Englishman to circumnavigate the globe. He even rescued the unsuccessful English colonists of Roanoke Island off the coast of the Carolinas and gave them passage to England aboard his vessel. After an illustrious career, Drake died off the coast of Panama to something as mundane as dysentery.
