Their transportation:
I had relatives over from wales visiting my grandmother in canberra. "Come, drive up for the day! "
Bitch i live in melbourne. The drive alone is longer than your entire “kingdom”
I sadly see this all the time unironically. Met a German family who arrived in North Carolina with plans to go to Disney Land. Not World. Land
“Isn’t California just on the other side of the country?”
Yeah it is
How do people not check driving times in this modern age?
We had family visit from the UK many years ago. They said after they visited Niagara Falls, they wanted to “pop over” to Prince Edward Island to see Anne of Green Gables. That is an 18h drive if you don’t even stop to pee. They finally realized how big Canada really is when somebody showed them a map of England superimposed on a map of Canada.
Haha yes!
I remember travelling to family in Canada and asking if we could go to Disneyland. In Florida.
Disney Land is in California.
World is in Florida
Shows what my 12 year old mind knows.
Don’t you have to be at least 13 to post on Lemmy
Does Lemmy follow laws? Thats new. The hivemind doesn’t adhere to your human constructs.
It takes like a week to drive from NY to CA.
Realistically 4 days with ~12 hour drives will get you there including lunch and gas stops.
Something like NY - Toledo - Omaha - SLC - SF
Shout out the 1 hour 45 minute drive from JFK to just over the bridge into Jersey
Lmao cycling is faster according to Google
Holy crap, just shoot me out a cannon, I’ll get there sooner or die, either is preferable
Fly into Newark. Nobody in nj uses JFK or laguardia.
In OP’s image they “land” in NYC and drive to Miami. You would drive the route I posted to leave NYC.

Let’s call it the gulf of middle earth
Nope, it’s the Gulf of America. He said so. Now quit your anti-US retorics lest you be deported.
Only if marlago is designated americas rectum.
Palm Beach is full of [rich] assholes so I would say this tracks.
Urectum
Or just save being put in an ICE facility and go visit Canada and not be put in an ICE facility.
Edit typo
In America, 100 years is a long time
In Europe, 100 miles is a long distanceTf is a mile, bruv? Don’t come in 'ere with these nonsensical made up freedom units
Miles originated in Britain, so talk to them about their made-up nonsense.
At least they were eventually willing to give up the imperial system. I still don’t understand why Americans never got on board with metric; it’s so much easier.
Just watched a video which explains a few things.
Time zones start in UK because of some decent reasoning. France was also a contender for where timezones start for the same kinds of reasoning but conceded it in agreement that UK adopts the new metric system they created
Yeah, 'Muricans be like “B-but… the Brits…”
Like, yeah. They moved on. They evolved, changed their ways. USians hanging on to legacy units
If I remember my conversions right then a mile is 5280 kilometers. I hope that helps explain why Europeans would fear such a distance!
Tf. Why would anyone have a unit for that
“A benpu is 327 meters!”
…wait a minute… am I being made a fool of? Can’t tell, cuz I don’t comprehend dumb units. I’d legit buy that as a real thing, given how stupid those tend to be
My brother went to college in upstate NY in the 80’s and made friends with a girl who was born & raised in Manhattan. One weekend, in all seriousness, she suggested taking the subway to the Grand Canyon.
80’s
'80s
8’0s
in the 80’s what?
Vegas sucks though.
The dream could be realized if America actually had high speed rail, but that would require investing our taxes into real infrastructure instead of state-sponsored terrorism.
Yeah no, even a jet couldn’t get those travel times. Or when people plus them.
Don’t do it, America sucks right now.
Ah, a meme from a simpler time. Now the first thing I think of is how long the stay in Guantanamo Bay will be.
Out of curiosity, I put the route in Google Maps to see how long each leg would take. 20 hrs., 37 hrs., 5 hrs.
You really can’t experience everything if has to offer in just one day. I wish tourists could better understand.
If they make it all the way noon, I’d be surprised. Make a stop in Alligator Auschwitz.
