终于，我们崛起了，我看到了加勒比海……我的第一种感觉是一种渴望在沙滩上占领并为自己声称自己的地方的渴望。海滩是盐的白色，并被面对大海的陡峭山丘割断了世界。我们处在一个大海湾的边缘，水是那种淡淡的绿松石色，您可以用白色的沙子底部获得。我从未见过这样的地方。我想脱下所有的衣服，再也不会穿。
(Finally we came over a rise and I saw the Caribbean...My first feeling was a wild desire to drive a stake in the sand and claim the place for myself. The beach was white as salt, and cut off from the world by a ring of steep hills that faced the sea. We were on the edge of a large bay and the water was that clear, turquoise color that you get with a white sand bottom. I had never seen such a place. I wanted to take off all my clothes and never wear them again.)
