To make this story complete I visited the Thor Heyerdahl museum in Oslo. A great exhibition of all the journeys he made and things he had achieved. The original Kon-Tiki and RA I and II rafts are both on display. I was lucky enough to meet Thor Heyerdahl Jr there, now 80 years old but in many ways a son of his father, a nice man overflowing with knowledge and enjoyment of life. He has worked on many projects together with his dad and is still very involved with the museum. I think of Thor as an explorer but Thor Jr explained to me he wanted to be seen as a scientist first. His wife Liz who joined him to Fatu Hiva was the adventurer and explorer. This world is so special there is so much more to explore. SUP
