the farthest reaches

[low_delta]

Mike and Jill are in New Zealand for their honeymoon. I've never been to the southern hemisphere. The farthest south I've been is Hawaii. The farthest west I've ever been was also Hawaii. That's about a time zone away from the International Date Line. The farthest east I've ever gone was Heathrow, which is a few miles from the Prime Meridian. So I've never been to the eastern hemisphere.

This weekend's wedding on Long Island was the farthest east I've been in North America. Farthest south on the continent was Tampa, and the farthest west was Muir Woods/Mt. Tamalpais north of San Francisco Bay.
