THE SUMMARY

I believe that bartholomeu dias was a hall of fame because he took a lot of voyages. he was a good explore and he never gave up in his voyages. He was a very courages sea captain. always did not look back even though things were going bad. he wa s part of the of the portugeese court and so was his dad so he followed him. He discovered brazil and he turned back to the South of Africa. He went the way Christphor Colomus did to find brazil and all of South Africa. that is why i thought he was a hall of fame and not a hall of shame.                                                                          

                                                                                    THE REFLECTION

         Bartholomeu dias was just like the people that are exploring space because he liked to explore places. He did not give up only if it was hard or impossible. He liked to venture out into the world. He like to discover new things and new places. Just like people that explore space and finds new things. the technoloigain they used was similar but more advanced for them. But to the space people probably they thought it was to easy for them. He tryed new things and never gave up and never looked back.he went on exploration alot to find out information. tehe voyages were longer but they were like the same thing. the space was shorter.
