Woman, husband sail junk for 13 months ( 2003-10-17 15:50) (China Daily)
Liu, a 46-year-old Tianjin native, and her US-born husband sailed into the
city on Tuesday after spending 13 months on the high seas in their junk, reports
Daily News.
Since departing from France last August, the pair have sailed across the
Mediterranean, the Red Sea and the Indian Ocean in their 11.5 metre-long, 3.4
metre-wide vessel on their way to China.
According to Liu, they plan to sail back to the United States in the same
junk after a short period of rest in China.
