Who is looking back at you as you stare across the ocean?

Submitted by Wanderlust Andi

If you could look way beyond that ocean you are staring at, what would you see? Well:

if you are in San Francisco, you would see Japan
if you are in Vancouver, you would see Russia
if you are in Boston, you would see Spain
if you are in DC, you would see Portugal
if you are in Miami, you would see the Western Sahara

It is something to ponder. You might be just one person on that beach - but, we can all feel connected to the world when we realize the nations that lie beyond that deep blue sea.
