It must be on holiday, taking a trip 2100 km up north, probably to avoid the tsunami. I will admit, I wasn't aware that New Guinea was so close to, and NZ so far from Australia. I also hadn't realized how closely grouped the islands of the Bahamas were either, I used to commute further for work then some of these islands are apart.
It's not just Fox...
