LIFE - Niña in Palatka

When I learned a replica of Columbus' Niña was docked in Palatka for the week, I had to check it out. It tours around the U.S. and the Caribbean--if it stops by near you, it's worth a look. (I don't know if there's a replica of the Pinta out there. There's a Santa Maria in--of course--Columbus, Ohio. Of course, being replicas, there could be more than one of any or all of them.)

Whatever else, good or bad, you can say about Columbus, he had guts. That's a small ship to cross an ocean of unknown width.
