So, was Thor Heyerdahl’s Kon Tiki a rift raft?

Hint: The Free Online Dictionary defines rift valley this way; “A valley that has developed along a rift, especially one bounded by normal faults in an area of lithospheric thinning.”

When you find a definition that sends you to other parts of the dictionary, you need to spend more time there anyway. (Bob’s unofficial rules).

I suppose it must have been, what with the ocean there and all.

Off to the Walmart I go ... seeya (although not there).

I went to a bar called the Kon Tiki after work a couple of times in the seventies.
