How could I have been so stupid? I don’t know why I even wasted my time. It turns out that Greenland extends much farther eastward than I thought, and there is no way that there is a passage leading to Asia anywhere near here. In my plan I thought that if we headed north of Greenland we may be lucky, but I guess I miscalculated. On the bright side, we discovered a small island in the Barrents Sea north of Iceland. However, the island is really unimportant to our voyage and I am forced to turn around Hopewell. My crew will not be happy when they hear the news. They are already on the edge because of the temperature out here. Why is it so unbelievably COLD? Even in August! Anyway, we shall be arriving back at home in a few weeks.
Hello, I am Mr. Henry Hudson. I was born on September 12, 1570 and I am an English sea explorer and navigator. I was named "Master of the Vessel" by my good friends at the Muscovy Company. Right now I am on the search of a route that will lead us to North America. My best friend's are my crew members, especially Jonathan and George. I would be nothing today without them!
