I don't know how grand and cool things look in real life because I don't travel. And I have no interest in travelling. However, I do like to look up pictures of various places on the internet. And look at what I found: 

LOOK AT HOW GORGEOUS THAT IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT'S ON THE COAST OF NAMIBIA!!!! I can't say how long it takes to travel there, but it's so pretty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh, and speaking of travelling, have you ever wondered where the equator and the prime meridian lines on the globe meet at exactly 0,0,0???

Here it is!!!

It's somewhere in the Gulf Of Guinea which is by Nigeria. There's no actual land there, but apparently you can take a boat to visit. It's just a buoy, but it's still pretty funny that they put something there.
