EventAcross the pillars

The Isle of Bimini

d009_fountain_of_youth_events.5

The sailors have a name in their mouths now, and they will not stop whispering it: Bimini, an island near this coast where a spring rises that gives back the years the sea has taken from the old. Every pilot claims to have heard it from a man who heard it from another man. The chart shows a scatter of low green islands within a few days' sail, any one of which might be the place... or none of them. To turn off the mainland is to gamble weeks of provisions on a fisherman's tale — which is, when one stops to think on it, precisely the tale that carried this whole expedition across the ocean.
