Tuesday 21st June. After getting myself dressed this morning went on deck & discovered Land ahead at a very great distance, was told that it was Teneriffe. Immediately after breakfast commenced writing home & about noon we were nearer the Land & had a complete view of the Peak. About dinner time came in sight of Santo Cruz the Capital of the Canaries, & about 1/2 past dropped Anchor close to the town of Santo Cruz. Soon after we had dropped Anchor we were visited by the boat & after some formality were permitted to go on shore where we chuse. Capt. Crear after tea went on shore & procured some fruit.
