Thanks Touron. I didn't know that. It sounds like Captain Cabrillo was sailing north to explore up to Washington state when he was turned back by foul weather. He was a brave skipper sailing on the far side of the known world.
"Every September the Cabrillo Festival Inc. hosts the Cabrillo Festival, an annual three-day celebration of his discovery of San Diego Bay, including a re-enactment of his landing at Ballast Point." Wikipedia
Has anyone here been to this festival? Do they re-enact the formal act of possession?
