Description

The Kunst brothers and Willie Makeit II with Thor Heyerdahl inside a small restaurant in Alassio, Italy on June 12, 1971. The mule caused quite a stir knocking over bottles and glasses while passing tables to meet the Norwegian adventurer. The brothers were invited to the Heyerdahl residence in Colla Micheri for breakfast. He gave them an autographed copy of his Ra expeditions. Another world walk highlight.
