From Perth Western Australia, to Philadephia is 11600.5 miles.
From Earth to Moon is 356400 miles.
So, to get to the moon I need to fly just 30 times to Philadephia OR 15 round trips, and that's as the crow flies (straight there). If I counted the trip to get there, it's more like 12 times.
The earths diameter (or how fat the earth is at the uppermost size) is 12 756.2 kilometres. So every time I cover the distance to philadephia, I cover more distance than the earth is wide.
You think I complain when I only get to come to KR at most once a year or once every two years?

We hold in our hands the harvest of what we have sown in Hope. Do we sow for Good? or for Evil?
