Colonization And Winds

   In Class i read an article about the Europeans and there trading routes. I got a lot of new cool information about the Europeans and what routes they take.
   The Europeans used trade winds to get to and from the Americas.
  Columbus sailed 150 miles each day and in  36 days he traveled 5,400 miles .
   Europeans brung maize,white potatoes,sweet potatoes,wheat,barley,rice and turnips
  Europeans took african slaves, molasses, Rum, to bring to the Americas.
 Last but not least The Europeans took sugar, moloasses, fruits, tobacco, furs, and lumber to bring to Europe .
