By Bahia Smits

Several KCC Spanis.h Club members and their advisor Carol Beresiwsky were invited to a tour of the Spanish sailing ship from Cadiz, Spain, that was docked at pier 8 at the Aloha Tower this past week. The Juan Sebastian de Colon was named after Juan Sebastian del Cai'lo, the first man to circum­ navigate the world. It has been 7 years since her last visit to Hawaii. On board were 300 young, Spanish sail- · ors who are third year students of the Spanish Naval Academy. When the club found out that there were students on board, they in­ vited them on campus. The sailors met, and spoke with the Spanish class about life on board the ship and in Spain. The sailors principally study and attend hours of classes learning the history of navi­ gation. Hands on experience is often in­ cluded when the motors are shut down and the sails are hoisted. They have been sched­ uled to be at sea for 6 months. Their journey started in November and will finish some­ time in April. The ship is passing through Honolulu on 1 her way to San Francisco where she contin­ ues to Vancouver, back to San Diego, s Acapulco, through the Panama Canal, Florida, and finally Baltimore before head­ ing home to Cadiz. The sailors have already spent Christmas in Brazil. The Juan Sebastian de Colon left Pier 8 last week Friday, taking captain and crew to _many more exotic ports of call ..
