Description
An account of the resource
When the Landons went on furlough in 1931, Kenneth traveled around the world one way, on his own, while Margaret traveled around the other way with the children. She went east, and he went west so as to travel to the Holy Land. One memorable experience was swimming in the Dead Sea. "Yes, I sat in the Dead Sea. You can't swim in it." He says he is the type who sinks in fresh water, but he could sit in the water and read a newspaper. He literally sat upright, reading. He also swam in the Sea of Galilee. Had a wonderful time there.
