Two of the entirety of Vatican City would fit inside the 2.5 mile oval at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

Puerto Vallarta Mexico is in CST despite being on the Pacific Coast.

Your point is? That Mexico and Central America bend to the east? Chile is the same time zone as Atlantic Canada, despite being on the Pacific Ocean.

I know that it's just many would not think of that. Usually when they think Pacific coast they will think PST zone.

Central America is well known for being thin and is obviously not three time zones apart from one side to the other.

That CST is year round though, so most of the time they're in line with US Mountain Time. Which they should be - they're almost exactly due south of Denver.

The Lei Valley, an Italian valley draining to... the North Sea via the Rhine. The only part of Italy draining directly to the Atlantic, as opposed to the Mediterranean Sea or (in several small areas) the Black Sea via the Danube (also unexpected). It also contains a weird border, as Italy ceded some land to Switzerland so that they could build the dam.

Had a thought today as I drove to the mountains. The Eisenhower Tunnel is only 50 miles from Denver City limits. Feels like it should be farther.

It only feels farther because of the very reliable traffic along 70...

Fortunately not today leaving Denver at 4:00 PM.
