I've got a round-trip ticket to Gaikoku

I have a ton of work to do, but I wanted to post this before I forgot. Today, a first-grader asked me:

Which is farther, America or Foreignland?

I'm not sure I'll ever be able to stop laughing. I think the answer would have to be Foreignland (Gaikoku)!

(The PC term for a non-Japanese person in Japan is Gaikokujin, or other-country-person, and foreign language is gaikoku-go for other-country-language, so it's a term that comes up around me quite a lot. He must have thought I had dual citizenship!)
