Size comparison

I've been meaning to get a grip on the scale of the places I've been traveling. Here is an image I made to compare some places I know with places I've been lately. Each box is a constant 50 miles square. Overall, no big surprises.



One surprise for me though, was the latitude of these places. Tokyo is about the same latitude as southern California, and Guam is just "south of" the southern border of Mexico.
