Footnotes ...

<1>While we're fans and frequent users of TripAdvisor, you should know that we're also members of the TripAdvisor affiliate program.
<2>Our distances are not driving distances, but are calculated as a 'straight-line' (or point-to-point) distance. A straight line distance ignores things like rivers, canyons, lakes, et cetera - it's truly a line drawn from Point A (ie- Village-Saint-Paul) to Point B. In other words: 'As the crow flies'.
<3>While we have tried to pick reasonable speeds, the rate of travel is very theoretical - obstacles like fences, hills, lakes, river crossings and rest stops have been ignored. When we say 'Days' of travel, we're assuming 8 hours of travel per day.
<4>The shortest line can be visualized by stretching a string on a Globe from Point A to Point B - this is known as a Great Circle Route. Where you might expect the shortest route from Village-Saint-Paul to the Middle East to be East and South, the Great Circle Route actually lies to the North and East.Our distance measurements begin at a specific point in Village-Saint-Paul. The point we use is located at these GPS coordinates - Latitude: 47.7833, Longitude: -65.1500    
<5>The calculated bearing (or angle) to Jerusalem is 299.202 degrees.
<6>The calculated bearing (or angle) to Mecca is 295.221 degrees.
<7>The calculated bearing (or angle) to the Vatican is 294.444 degrees.
