"Juan Sebastian deElcano" - the school ship

So many Spaniards have been to Curacao only just after the discovering of the island... The "Juan Sebastian de Elcano" is a four-mast Top sail Schooner. It is one of the biggest and most antique sailing ship on duty.
Once again we woke up very early to see them entering the harbour and to hear the cannons with the salutation. Unlike the Bounty, no cannon ball reached the walls of the Governeur palace. We waited in vain as they left the harbour, expecting to see the sails in the wind. At the time they did it, it was already too far away for our zoom.
