Awesome Map Thread

Not really a map, but still pretty cool...

Discover the city on Earth that is the furthest away from where you live. Perth, Australia is the furthest city from Winston.

Perth is the farthest city for much of the US. As an example, Perth is the farthest away for both Boston and Miami, as well as places as far west as Topeka. By Denver, for example, it switches to Western Africa.
 
Semi-relevant to that - I wonder which city it would actually take the longest time to travel to from my location, considering that a flight to Perth would be fairly direct. There have to be some remote towns that you have to catch a ride on an alligators back down the amazon to get to. Which world city I wonder is furthest from an airport

Obviously not Canada Geese. They don't migrate anymore. They just shit up everything in the same place, all year.
