My cousin left Gosford, north of Sydney, half an hour ago, to come here to visit for a few days.

I used Google maps to estimate the travel time for my cousin to drive here today from his place

Apparently, the shortest way is via the Andromeda Galaxy?? Go figure?

That's a very good travel time! I guess speed of light limits don't apply. Did your cousin find a stable wormhole? ;)

I just wonder what the tolls are like? Do they accept bit coins or do you need byte coins?
