July 10, 2007. He has been heading for Australia with only birds, fish, and sharks ever since.
Crossing the Pacific is only part of his journey. Eruc has decided to go all the way around the world using
his own energy. He will row, bike, walk, and climb the world without help from any motors (发动机) at all.
His plan includes climbing the tallest peak on six of the continents (洲) along the way.
For the first part of his trip, he bicycled 5,546 miles from Seattle, Washington to Mount McKinley in Alaska
and back, walked 67 miles to base camp, and climbed 20,320 feet to McKinley"s peak. Now in the second part
of his adventure (冒险活动), he is rowing to Australia.
Why would he try to go around the world this way? He explains that he wants to encourage kids to dream
their dreams and get to their own goals. He wants to show kids that there might be hard parts along the way,
and sometimes they might not even get to that final goal. But they can have great adventures and learn a lot
along the way.
Eruc. has already faced some difficulties. For example, winds and waves keep pushing him westward
when he wants to go south toward the Solomon Islands. If his luck doesn"t change, he will cheerfully change
his plan, and aim to land at Papua New Guinea. One way or another, he"s sure he"ll get to his next goal:
Australia.
When his trip around the world takes him across land, he enjoys meeting people-especially children. He
has already visited many schools and shared his story.

progress, and we will be farther along than when we started, even if we don"t get to some goals. Tnat"s called
