00:00This is like Explorer Day for you, sir. Today we have your Columbus Day proclamation for Monday, which we're signing a bit early.
00:07Christopher Columbus, obviously, discovered the New World in 1492. He was a great Italian explorer.
00:16He sailed his three ships, the Nina the Pinta and the Santa Maria, across the Atlantic Ocean, and landed in what's today the Caribbean.
00:23But this is a particularly important holiday for Italian-Americans who celebrate the legacy of Christopher Columbus and the innovation and explorer zeal that he represented.
00:34In other words, we're calling it Columbus Day.
00:40That was the press that broke out in applause.
00:48Can you believe that? I've never seen that happen before.
