Journals of discovery

One of the journals we read as Of Plymouth Plantation. It was a very interesting journal and was very good and showed good detail. It showed how hard it was to live over in the new world. It was very good at explaining the hardships. First the author talked about how long they were at sea and the boat ride was not fun at all. Also they had no place to go and there was no one there to greet them. When they got there it was winter and it was an awful winter. Also the native americans were not as friendly as they had hoped in the biggining. There were also wild beast and animals that they had to deal with. In 2-3 months half of the people that had come over to the new world had died. Alot of them died from disease. But some died from the cold and hunger. These are just some of the hardships that the people had to deal with when they came to the new world.
