We hit land today and the men all jumped out of the ship and started rolling around in the dirt. They looked around for a bit till one man came back and said there was life on this rock. The men all went and looked at what he was talking about and they saw indians and they were sitting around a fire. The men decided to sneak up on them. Before they could get all the way there the men ran away so we are heading back to spain to tell everyone.
