It's a 4.5 hr trek for me. With my luck there probably wouldn't be anything that catches my eye except some vintage dirt.

Awe sweet, it's only a 13 hour cruise

But that would be really cool to go to if it were within reasonable distance.

But think about all the time you'll save walking around a swap meet 1/10th the size of a normal one.
