In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue!!!!

A recreation of the Nina, one of Columbus' ships was in Portland, OR for a brief time and the family went down to see it.

The Nina was the favorite of Christopher Columbus.  It was quite small, and had about 25 crew when it sailed.  When it returned to Europe it had about 100 passengers, who all lived above deck.

Here's Avery and Mark posing for a quick picture.
