      Sydney to Auckland is 2150km. That’s a much more helpful metric than an overlay of the United States and expecting non Americans to know what this scale means. Like, how far is the edge of the US to the middle point that overlaps with the eastern seaboard of Australia?

      “People don’t realise” – many of us do, including those of is who live in this region and have made the back and forth journey.

      As a proud resident of the midwest, I see an easy 2 day drive, or a crappy 1 day drive.

      You’re saying „people“, but I’m sure Aussies/Kiwis were aware of this. You’re using the US as a measurement, you can just say „Americans don’t realise how far New Zealand is for Australia“ you know.

      This is just an excuse to finally include New Zealand on a map for once. I prefer their state of permanent exile from the world of cartography

      People have tried kayaking it. None have succeeded.

      There are several people that have crossed the Atlantic in a solo kayak.

      I’m apparently the only person that is actually shocked New Zealand is that far away lol

      We went from measuring in miles (however many peanuts a mile is) to measuring in USAs? 🤣

      I feel like even an Australian wouldn’t perceive it as being that far because most live on the east coast, so NZ is about as far as Perth on the west coast, which is still part of their country. NZ probably even feels closer than Perth because you HAVE to fly there, but Perth is reachable via an agonizingly long road trip.

      From the middle of Australia, it’s 7 days of non-stop flight for a bald eagle.

      in other news, op thinks the earth is flat and the world revolves around the us

      This is way closer than I thought. It’s not “right off the coast”. But it’s more than manageable.

      I get your point too, it’s farther than many think about (most probably assume or don’t think at all), so fair enough OP
