For Mutiny on the Bounty fans, it’s a mere 1,193 miles to Pitcairn Island.
Santiago, Chile is 2,338 miles away.
You have to travel 2,641 miles to get here from Papeete, Tahiti.
From our hometown of McKinney, Texas it’s 4,251 miles.
Hollywood checks in at 4,266 miles.
Honolulu is 4,658 miles away.
And Angaston, South Australia, our home away from home, is 6,264 miles from Easter Island.
Truly one of the most isolated spots on earth.
I did not know previously that Easter Island is closer to McKinney, Texas, than it is to either Hollywood or Honolulu. Even though I’m not sure how that may come in handy, I’ve filed it away in the “miscellany” quadrant of my brain for future reference. If it ever comes up, I’ll be sure to credit you.
I look forward to reading about it in next month’s newsletter.
