Did you know...
... that today is the Walk Around the World Anniversary? On
June 10, 1970, American David Kunst began to walk around the
world. Dave started his journey in Waseca, Minnesota, with his
brother John, a letter of recommendation from Sen. Hubert Humphrey, a scroll to be signed by officials along the way,
$1000 and a mule named Willie Makeit carrying camping
supplies. 1,576 days later, on October 5, 1974, he completed
his walk. When traveling by ship between landmasses, he walked
the decks of the ship!
