Reyes in a camper van, with my new wife. I think we'd been married a total of 2 days. I pulled in late to the light house and parked under a no-camping sign and spent the night. Next morning the ranger came by and gave me a ticket. The ticket cost me $20. Camping in an official campground was $15. But it did upset Lu at the time. She's always been a law abiding person, but slowly over the years she'd adapted. > But hold on, did I fall asleep in history class ? > Sir Francis Drake in California ? > Learn something new every day. > Yeah, me too. I looked up Sir Francis in wikipedia and found out something I didn't know... What is certain of the extent of Drake's claim and territorial challenge to the Papacy and the Spanish crown is that his port was founded*somewhere* north of Point Loma; that all contemporary maps label all lands above the Kingdoms of New Spain and New Mexico as "*Nova Albion*", and that all colonial claims made from the East Coast in the 1600s were "From Sea to Sea". The colonial claims were established with full knowledge of Drake's claims, which they reinforced, and remained valid in the minds of the English colonists on the Atlantic coast when those colonies became free states. Maps made soon after would have "*Nova Albion*" written above the entire northern frontier of New Spain. These territorial claims became important during the negotiations that ended the Mexican–American War<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexican%E2%80%93American_War> between the United States and Mexico. See, if it hadn't been for Sir Frank, I might be speaking spanish!
