I keep telling everybody that says the US is full that I've been to the fucking Dakotas and I disagree.
Bfd. I can drive 13 hours in Germany from the Dutch border and still be stuck in a fucking traffic jam around Frankfurt on highway 3 and never get to my skiing destination in Austria.
23 hours to go from Cornwall, Ontario to Kenora, Ontario by the most direct route.
I miss the days when Google maps would tell you to get in a canoe for transoceanic routes.
I suspect some enterprising person actually tried it, thus depriving the rest of us our directional humor.
Meanwhile in Canada it takes nearly a full day to drive from one side of Ontario to the other. I have more faith in the European mind comprehending this than the USA'ean mind.
Sure, but I can drive for more than 11 hours and still be in Romania 👍
Let's not talk driving hours, let us talk mileage. 13 hours on a Texas highway is going to cover much more land than trying to drive some 12th century side street in an Italian village at 5km/h.
It was crazy to realize on a recent road trip through the middle of the US, that half of my day's planned drive was the width of Germany.
In North America, we think 100 years is a long time. In Europe they think 100 miles is a long distance.
Honestly have no idea how far 100 miles is. 100 km however is not too bad.
You can do that and still not get all the way through Nordland county (!) in Norway 🤷
The Euopean mind cannot comprehend having to drive 13 hours for what would take a train only 3
oh look, an international dick measuring contest... except without dicks!
Pfft, come to Ontario Canada, from 2 different boarders you can drive 24 hours and still be in Onterrible
half of that time is sitting in san antonio traffic.
