When an older companion tells her that the nearest landmass from shore is the coast of Spain, she is even more interested. She vows two things, one is to visit Spain when she is older. And secondly, "When I have seen what Spain is like, I will tell the other children about it." This she does sailing to the coast of Gibraltar where the adventure begins.
