A map of the world showing the only land areas (in green) which also have land on the exact opposite side of the globe - at their antipodes.
The amazing thing is that almost all land areas (the ones shaded dark blue) are opposite oceans. Is this purely to be expected on a planet where water covers more than 70% of the surface? Or is there more to it than that? Who can do the math?
Thanks to @Amazing_Maps on Twitter for the map.

Tillerman, 'Who is that Guy?' is another post from a long time ago. We still have no idea about 'Who is this?' Is it Cris P. Bacon? Funny how many food posts I 'made' you write!!
No, it's not the Laser sailor, Cris P. Bacon, whom I blogged about once. But the mystery sailor is very fond of bacon sandwiches and mentions them often on his blog.
He also likes gin, and blogs about it.
Well, I must find this blog. I mean, gin and bacon?
You would like his blog. He almost always writes about the food and drink he consumes at every sailing event he goes to.
aha, its Tillerman!
