Ooh, exciting!

Haha! I can plan a trip from Ancient Rome to London? Cool...

The Indian nations one is particularly interesting. I'm pretty sure the tribes that originally occupied my state were known as particularly blood thirsty. XD (Or, at least, looking them up, they were really good at raiding.)

I kind of resent some of the divisions/call-outs on the Middle Earth/US map, but it's very cool. ;))

(Also, I noticed this was listed under "nanowrimo"---is this research for November? :D)

I love travel time stuff. Not that I ever worry about time tables too much, but every so often I check something or want a rough idea.

(It is under nanowrimo, and it is research. Or so I'm telling myself. ;)) )

Well, of course! You'd hate to say it took a week to get from one place to the next and then find out that it really took a month. Or, alternatively, you'd hate to plan out a trip that will take your characters three months and then find out that they'd better have got really, really lost to take that long. ;))

(Yay! :D Do you already have a story planned out for November?)

(I do have a basic plot and stuff. And a cast of nameless characters, which worries me. ;)) )
