    I don't think I've ever walked in a foriegn country at midnight. Or foreign either. Yes, I appreciate the irony of me making a joke about a typing error made by someone else when I make them so often, but I intend to enjoy this moment. I doubt it'll come again.

    I'd also like to add that I was listening to the Indiana Jones theme music when I clicked that link and so your journey seemed very impressive.

    I never have, but when I went to Italy with my parents, they went out to have an evening date, and the buses stopped running at night, so they were stuck at night trying to find a taxi in a bad part of Bologna with gypsy thieves and stuff. I remember sitting on my grandma's neighbor's floor wondering where my parents were, while the neighbors (and old couple) tried to cheer me up in Italian and their very limited English, and toy Ferrari cars and banners and such, because car racing is very popular in Italy and kids their love it.

    Oh there have been plenty of times. Whenever I go on holiday with family, as we're British and all, we'd go in British bars playing extremely loud British music and with a British comedian saying the same set of British jokes every night. (When people walked past they'd be all 'Oh, this looks like a German!? - Oh! Oh!' or if someone with a mullet hairstyle walked past they'd just slate them )

    Anyway, we'd end up staying late every night as my parents would get really drunk. So we're walking back really far to go home (My parents always have to go in secluded apartments, ugh) through loads of short cuts across fields we've found, with my Mum hardly able to stand, singing at the top of her voice. This is usually around midnight or even later

    We're so British on holiday!

    The only time I've ever been out of the US was on a ferry that went up to the Canadian shore of Lake Erie, then went back to port. And it was midday. I didn't walk much

    You live in a cemetery? Creepy.

    EDIT: @AK

    EDIT2: I've never left Canada. Why would I? It's perfect here. Except the weather, but places with nice weather tend to have other nasty things to deal with.

    20k, at least. I can't remember if the other time I'm thinking of was farther or shorter than that.
