I am thinking of asking the police about which routes you can take, as I don't want you getting any tickets. A route is coming together in my mind, which is good.

The figure changes to around 21 miles if I do my measurement by tracing a path along some of the streets (whether these streets are open to pedestrians is, of course, another matter, something that will have to be verified).<BR/><BR/>Because the Google tools don't take terrain into account, it's possible that the walk is indeed longer than 21 miles, but I suspect it won't be longer by that much.<BR/><BR/><BR/>KevinKevin Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01328790917314282058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5541500.post-65350978510111463042008-03-12T09:46:00.000+09:002008-03-12T09:46:00.000+09:0018-21 miles doesn't strike me as the correct numbe...18-21 miles doesn't strike me as the correct number; I think it is significantly longer, but I don't know.
