Antipodal
I saw something on the internet a while back about antipodal points, and finding the the region on the Earth's surface which is diametrically opposite to wherever you live. Then going and photographing the place. Well, I thought that was a pretty cool concept (however impractical in my non-globe-trotting life). So I went to the link, entered my location, and found that my antipodal point is in the middle of the Indian Ocean!
In fact, all of the USA is opposite the Indian Ocean. Except for a couple of tiny islands that are mostly uninhabited, there's simply nothing there.
Bottom line?
Nevermind.
