Airstream Caravan

A couple in California owns a classic Airstream trailer that seems to have been part of the Wally Byam Caravan Club International, and elite adventure club. Did this particular trailer make the journey on the historic "Cape Town to Cairo Caravan" of 1959? Host Tukufu Zuberi heads to Denver and Southern California to explore one man's wanderlust at the birth of American leisure travel.
