Hi, ALL THE EXPLORERS were looking for gold. In his case he was interested in the mythical 7 cities of Cibola. Also the fountain of youth. For whatever reason, he fixated on Florida for the fountain of youth. HE 'might', I am not sure, have a relation to the founding of the city of St Augistine in Florida. THANKS
