Viking Ship Made from Ice-cream Stick Sails for England
Sunday, April 13, 2008
A 15-metre (50-foot) Viking ship made from ice-cream stick sails from the Netherlands to England on April 8. Made by Robert McDonald, his son and more than 5,000 children, this ship was made from 15 million recycled ice-cream sticks and glue.
Link"If you can dream it you can do it ... I want to teach children that anything is possible," McDonald said. Badly injured as a child in a gas explosion that killed the rest of his family, he has loaded his ship with cuddly toys and plans to reach London and visit children in hospitals.
