We were now closer than ever to reaching the Spice Islands, but when the Cebu asked for his help in fighting their neighbors on the island of Mactan, Magellan agreed. We assumed he would command a swift victory with his superior European weapons, and against the advice of his men, Magellan himself led the attack.

Food at sea was tarriable so I tried to stay away from it salt and beef or pork, cheese fish, ok hides and old biscuits were some of the things we had to eat on the ship, I tried to stay away from the biscuits because they were usally filled with maggots or had rat poop on them.

We were so much closer than ever to reaching the Spice Islands, but when the Cebu asked for his help in fighting their neighbors on the island of Mactan.The people there were very friendly, and we all enjoyed the fresh food. They rested for nine days, waiting for the men to recover from their difficult journey. As Magellan went from island to island, he converted the natives.

When we lost Magellan things were rought we then had no leader untill Jauan Sebastin Del Cano came to take place of Magellan. As our new leader it was weird but we got used to the new person and he lead us to victory so we likr him.

We had traveled to the Philippine Islands through the conventional trading routes around the Cape of Good Hope.We had traveled completely around the earth on a ship. This accomplishment made Magellan extremely famous by sailors. Even thought Megallan had died before he completes his goal it was still successful

After our leader died, Juan Sebastian Del Cano, a man who had supported mutiny while near South America, took control of the ships and continued on towards home. During this point of the voyage, only two ships and 47 men remained. In December of 1521, the ship Trinidad fell to the Portuguese, leaving the ship Victoria as the last remnant of the initial voyage.
