11 Year Journey around the World (20 pics)

Posted in       14 Mar 2011       7899

Herman and Candelaria Zapp started a 12,000 mile journey in an 83 year old Graham-Paige vehicle given to them by Herman's grandfather. At first their goal was 'just' to travel from Argentina to Alaska, but that journey has stretched into 142,000 miles, and 4 children in the 11 year journey, that isn't over yet.  They are home schooling their children, each born with a different nationality.  The kindness of strangers and sales of their two books cover their expenses as they've driven the antique vehicle (at a maximum 40 MPH) on 4 continents.  They have no plans to stop any time soon as they travel the world.

Whale Hunting in Indonesia (23 pics)

Posted in       14 Mar 2011       12838

In a small village in southern Indonesia off the coast of the island of Lembata, the local fishermen battle whales and sharks from a very small wooden boat with sticks. They capture the fish by harpooning them with long spears, and then dismember them in the water because the whales are too heavy and large to pull aboard their small boat.

It seems that in Russia, the freaky Russian kids have to post their outrageous antics on a social networking website. It would appear that they can no longer contain their emotions. As a result, they behave in a unique way and act very unusual.

Mr. Hurley salvaged the photographic plates by diving into the icy water inside the sinking ship.
