An Land / Ashore Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages über An Land / Ashore:

I've often fantasized about visiting the Bahamian beach where Columbus first stumbled ashore in 1492. Sadly, no one knows where that beach is. In fact, no one's even sure which island Columbus first encountered (there are three candidates). It's a pity, a disappointment, and a lost revenue source for the Bahamians. Seth Shostak

P. J. O'Rourke
