Captain Cook's coastal tour

Seems was 250 years since the Englishman Captain Cook & crew toured the eastern coast of Australia on the good ship Endevour 

 

You can read his take on events here in his own words

It appears everyone had a pleasant time on January 26th - 'natives' included


Huh? Phillip landed on  Jan 26th NOT Cook  ...... back to school for you


Quite the contrary , 26th January 1770 is recorded as a fine day of sustained friendly and gracious social interaction , including a guided tour of an island commune and trading for fine seafoods , with the resident citizens in two locations., assisted by I assume a resident citizen named "Tupia"  - what a land , what a country , what a people 


Thought this thread was about Cook NOT Phillip?


I think imastawka was refering to 26th Jan 1770 from Cook's dairy - i just reiterated that sentiment

Didnt know Cook owned a dairy, thought he was a sailor     ..... 


I rush replies when doing so should not be necessary  ....

Calm the Farm - no need to rush - perhaps it will  make your 'replies' - somewhat - understandable.
