That was sick.
ReplyDeleteSomewhere off the south-westernmost tip of Australia was where I'd end up if I dug straight down from the house I'm currently living in.
North Atlantic Ocean for me, about a third of the way from Morocco to NY.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you in the Indian Ocean....
ReplyDeleteALso the Indian Ocean...southeast of Madagascar. Damn...I was told when I was a kid I'd come out in China.
ReplyDeleteHmmm, also in the Indian Ocean. Wonder if that would be a good way to irrigate Arizona?
ReplyDeleteWhoa! Cool web page, Dusty! My exit spot would be the same as yours ... off the WSWcoast of Australia. It's late spring there now, right?
ReplyDeleteI decided to work the other way - pick a point and see how close I could get to China. I selected a point in Ecuador, and wound up in Singapore. Not bad for a first attempt. :-)
ReplyDeleteIf you dig down from the center of Stonehenge you end up just off the edge of the shelf off the south-east coast of New Zealand more or less 'cattycorner' with Dunedin.
ReplyDeleteKind of a let-down, really.
