Postcard Project
Today I continued researching on my postcard project. I found some really interesting articles through using the AVL service. I found some articles wrote by David Winkley describing the events and routes the fleet took on their journey around the world. I have also decided on the pictures on the postcards and I have chosen the places that they will go. I decided the places to be: Jamestown, around the horn of South Africa, Egypt, Japan, Hawaii, California. I have also decided my man to be an average sailor on the ship in his early twenties. He is from Atlanta, Georgia and he has three younger brothers and is from a single mother family. He is collecting souvenirs along the whole trip and he finds some amazing stuff. I look forward to completing this project!
