Default re: say what

Juan Perez of the Spanish navy came up from California in 1774 and explored and mapped the coast. There are many islands and other place names that are of Spanish origin here.

James Cook arrived in 1778 on his way to Hawaii. He should have stayed here as he was the first tourist murdered in Hawaii.
