A Fantastic Voyage
LONDON (AAP) A Fantastic Voyage - What does it take to make a voyage across a virtually unknown sea? Kael is a resident of Tournai in Flanders, France. While his is not the first ship to make its way to the English shores, it was the first carrying trading goods. After docking in Hastings, Sussex and being officially welcomed by the then Countess Opheliaverse, he and a small party made their way across the southern counties. "First of all the attraction of the innovation...the discovery of another culture...the hope to weave friendly bonds without forgetting the commercial business..."
When asked what advice he would give to someone traveling for the first time,he replied, "That depends where one goes. For example you must know that for English who will arrive in Flanders...the economic aspect will be important since on our premises the food products are appreciably more expensive...patience, much of force and courage. It is not easy to leave...for an unknown area."
His first and favourite memory of our land was "...my first steps on the grounds English and the reception received on your premise."
