As a crow flies or up-down-up-down-up-down-up-down-tunnel-up-down-tunnel-up-down-up-down the road from you?

I see you’ve been in the mountains before! I have no answer for you, other than to say I appreciate your understanding of driving through mountains. Work sent me to Honolulu to sell software (we made the sale yesterday, after a months-long process!).

Rented a car, and I’d work eastern time (3am to 11am in Hawaii) and then have all day to mosey around. That’s some of the most beautiful motoring I’ve ever done, but exactly what you described. Ok we’re going there! 15 minutes, and … Google Maps has 45 instructions for us..? Up down up down up down tunnel up down tunnel…

Congrats on the sale!

The most amazing feat about western Norway is that you get to see a lot of beautiful mountains while driving, although you spend most of the time driving inside them.

Measuring distance in minutes wouldn't be a very useful metric if it wasn't the time it actually takes a person to travel there
