I think this post is sooooooooo good. I love the way you wrote that Juan Ponce De Leon helped Christopher Columbus and I think it was really funny when you said even though Juan was brave, it wasn’t the most important thing about him. Where was Juan born?
Meera,
Juan Ponce De Leon was born in Santervás de Campos, Spain.

This explorer post you wrote about was very fascinating! I love how you told about where he explored.
