The Regatta at Saint Painting by Claude Monet

To avoid any encounter with the sea robbers in Suez Canal and Red Sea, he changed his route to the Cape Horn. But, even this route was not devoid of long shore pirates and thieves. He was followed by pirates. But, nature helped him to outwit them. A strong wave overtook the ‘Spray’ and shook hear every timber. At the same time, pirates were thrown back. Joshua’s life was again saved. After this incident, the journey was smooth for three-four weeks. On 5th October, he reached Brazil and stopped at Pernambuco harbour. He met his friend, Dr. Perera and started on his journey on 24th October. Dr. Perera supplied him with the eatables.
