Golden Hinde

 This ship traveled around the world and then also made a voyage back to England bringing back a very surprising amount of sailors and riches. The captain of the Golden Hinde was Sir Francis Drake. This isn't the real but it's an exact replica. We were here for a one-night experience of being a Tudor sailor who would live on the ship. C and I were officers; the people in black were barber surgeons and the people in green were the gunners.









 War with the Spanish...


 Restless… awake. Snoring sailors! Also drunken yellers from the pub next door. There was a security guard for our sake on board. We slept on the gun deck next to "minions'' (basically a smaller sized cannon).
