Time and distance

My sister Amity sent a really cool webpage-

I went a few clicks further and found this:

Distance from Krasnoyarsk to Columbus
Distance is 9351 kilometers or 5810 miles or 5049 nautical milesThe distance is the theoretical air distance (great circle distance). Flying between the two locations's airports can be longer or shorter, depending on airport location and actual route chosen.

Check out the map at the top of our blog :)- or check it out on the following page- it is a map of the world- showing Columbus, Ohio (roughly 45 min from where we live) to Krasnoyarsk, where our baby lives.
