History On The Water For Memorial Day

The Nina was built by hand and without the use of power tools and is considered to be the most historically correct Columbus Replica ever built. The 'Pinta' was recently built in Brazil and is a larger version of the archetypal caravel. Historians consider the caravel the Space Shuttle of the fifteenth century ~ mylbilife.com

There is one more day to see the Columbus ship replica's the Nina and the Pinta. I went today and it was a fascinating trip through time. Hard to believe these ships made their trek across oceans and in one piece. The ships will be at Viking Village from 9 am to 6 pm on Monday. They will leave for their next port Tuesday morning. Be sure to bring your cameras and enjoy boarding these intriguing pieces of history.
