[01:42.92]A guide told us about the city long ago. [01:48.76]"Who knows who lived here then?"she asked. [01:53.40]"Was it the Spanish?"I asked. [01:57.25]"Yes,"she said,"but the tribe of Caribes lived here first. [02:03.41]The Spanish came in the 1500s and built many of the buildings you see today." [02:10.93]"Then one day in 1586, [02:17.81]the explorer Sir Francis Drake and his men [02:22.85]came to Cartagena from England,"she said. [02:27.89]"They heard that the Spanish had lots of gold.Drake wanted the gold." [02:35.12]"Did he get it?"I asked."Drake went in at night,"she said. [02:42.58]"Did they have lights?"I asked. [02:46.54]"No,"she said."It was different in 1586. [02:54.38]Electric lights weren't invented then.The city didn't have street lamps. [03:01.91]It was very dark.So one of Drake's men lit a small fire to help him see. [03:09.97]The Spanish saw the light.""What happened then?"I asked. [03:16.81]"Some of the men hid the gold.Some started to fight Drake and his men." [03:24.26]"Did Drake get any gold?"I asked. [03:30.49]"Yes,he got some of it.His men took it away by boat. [03:36.94]"But Drake was not the last person to try to take gold from the city. [03:42.77]The Spanish people needed to protect their gold. [03:47.59]So they built this and lots of other strong buidings to protect the city. [03:54.25]We are lucky they did, [03:57.78]because these old buildings are still standing for us to see today!" [04:04.30]PROJECT [04:09.73]Listen and read the poem. [04:17.18]Tony's Time Machine [04:20.82]Tony turned the key to his brand-new time machinge. [04:27.05]It was time to go,time to see things he'd never seen. [04:33.92]He traveled back a million years,and he heard an awful roar.
