The Mayflower Arrival

When the voyagers arrived in the New World, it was winter time and it was very cold. A group of men went to go explore and came across an abandoned Indian camp. The Indians went to a different camp in the winter. So the men came and they found mounds. They dug the mounds up and discovered either corn or the grave of someone. The men took the corn and instead of burying the dead, they looted the graves. The women were also eager to get off the boat. Not to mention the foul stench and the sick people. However, since there were no dry or wet suits, the men started to get chills because the just wore wool clothes and leather boots. So there were still many problems that they faced even off the boat.
