After Kon Tiki, we walked across the parking lot to the Fram Museum. The Fram was the first Polar explorer ship. It has sailed the Arctic and Antarctic. Roald Amundsen was the captain and was also the first man to reach the South Pole. He beat Scott by a couple of weeks and left his tent at the pole for Scott to see. The boat was made of wood in the late 1800’s and sailed throughout the early 1920’s. It is still in such good shape that we walked through the ship.
