Which country would you really come out in if you started digging where you are..?

[timoc]

I can just imagine (if it was at all possible) digging like mad and then poking my spade through the last bit of earth, then discovering myself in a bathroom in OZ gaping at our lovely, Tish, surrounded by bubbles in her bath, and then receiving a hefty clout on the nose from the foamy mermaid.
"What was that for, Tish, I didn't know I'd arrive at your place?"
"You didn't bring any ice cream with you, you gormless clown", was the lady's response.

I would love to dig and end up in Australia, to meet all the wonderful animals in that country and their marvellous fauna. But, I am quite content to see it all on tv.

I think TV might be safer. I read somewhere that a lot of the fauna is poisonous to humans. Having said that, I would love to visit Sydney!

That would be a long way to swim.

Don't even think of attempting it, Harry.
Those waters are teeming with Noahs Arks.
Very big ones.

A whole lotta water! The nearest dry land would be the Cocos Islands, which are a bunch of coral atolls, administered as a territory by Australia.

Yes, I am quite content to being an armchair traveller these days. There are benefits.

I'd need a boat because I'd wind up here> -40.698470, 106.048558 (40° 41' 54.5" S, 106° 2' 54.8" E)

...in the Atlantic ocean somewhere between The Cape of Good Hope, South Africa, and Perth, Australia.

Roughly 500 miles southwest of Australia! I just stopped digging!
