Did you know the distance from Hawai’i to Tahiti is the same as LA to New York?


I believe it, 'cuz it takes longer to fly from California to Hawaii than it does to New York
Here's another random geography fact. Did you know it's closer from Cape Town to Buenos Aires, then it is from Cape Town to Tunis?
I didn't know the exact distance but am not really surprised - coming from. New Zealand, I've been fortunate to have been in Tahiti 5 times (and Moorea, and Bora Bora) Stunningly beautiful islands !
About the same distance from LA to Hawaii - 2500 miles +/-
Makes sense, since French Polynesia is further south

That doesn't surprise me but I'm pretty good at geography
Nope, I have been all over the world three times in that Australia area, but never been to Tahiti. Maybe I'll have to check it out
No, I didn’t. Thank you for educating me with this intriguing bit of information! You learn every day!
i had Anthony Bourdain on in the b. g. and he told the story of how the Polynesians became the first Hawai'ians traveling that distance and back in just a canoe. to prove this, they recreated the round-trip in 1976

Crazy, did not know that. Thank you. I have never been to Tahiti. I have lived in the three states.
I did not know that, and Id love to travel to Tahiti some day.
I didn't but I do now. I love learning new things every day
Yes I did. I would love to visit Tahiti someday!
I did not but when I think about it, it does make sense.
Of course not. Who do you think I am, a freakin' GENIUS?
But you can walk from LA to NY.
I didn’t know this, but now I do. Thanks! :)
