After several days of searching through the bay and harbors of this large outstretching of land that Cabrillo has discovered and named San Miguel, this location has failed to reveal any golden riches or connection of the North Atlantic to the North Pacific. Although the natives were very generous and were able to provide fresh food, water and other supplies, Cabrillo is disappointed to find that they know of no riches or a connection to Asia. Despite their disappointing answers, we have explored almost all of these waters and lands of San Miguel and have come up with no more than the natives informed us: nothing. Cabrillo has not yet led us to the Seven Cities of Cibola, but we still have hopes. He has been discouraged by the lack of turnout from this area, so he has decided to continue to travel north through the waters along this land to see if he will find any success further up north in the seas. So Cabrillo is persisting on performing more exploration in hopes of finding riches. Although, we are beginning to believe that the Seven Cities of Cibola may not exist or be purely myth. So we will continue north for now, but keep following for more information on Cabrillo's Journey!
