What's the most North, South, East and West you've been?

[Diddy]

Mine is 3300m above sea level in the Ethiopian Simien mountains. I assume we're not including aeroplanes, in which case I have no idea what the idea is.

I should've known you'd know already. How about the lowest? I guess it depends if you've been below sea level.

I've been down a mine, but I think it still would've been above sea level. Maybe somewhere in the Netherlands is below?

 

[Diddy]

I wonder if you can work out what area you've covered by your extremities (not just the 3 or 4 compass points extremes)

 

[lolly]

I would hope that moopy aren't as AUTISTIC that they need to have explained why certain threads are normally bumped over the more transient DAILY THREADS.

Hi Pot. This is Kettle.

 

[Eileen]

I should've known you'd know already. How about the lowest? I guess it depends if you've been below sea level.

Mine is obvious. I've been to the Dead Sea, which is the lowest point on Earth.

 

[Eileen]

Hi Pot. This is Kettle.

My autism is IRONIC. Like a HIPSTER.

 

[Diddy]

You LIVE in Sweden and you've only been that far north?!

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

Wait a minute; Sydney is more east than Tokyo, isn't it? I feel ashamed for making such a new beginner mistake!

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

You LIVE in Sweden and you've only been that far north?!

Well, what is there to see up there?

i did have a google of this before starting the thread as I'd hoped there was a calculator. There is not.

 

[Indie]

Have we done one on ALTITUDES? That should keep the arseburgers crowd busy

oooh

Highest: Cerro Rico, Bolivia (c. 4700m, I didn't go to the very top)
Lowest: Amsterdam Schippol Airport, -4m

 

[lolly]

That's probably further north of home than DoraTart has been.

 

[Eileen]

Jukkasjarvi.

 

[RaspberrySwirl]

That would be as much fun as watching an episode of GoT with only the Wildlings.
