Three tourists, an Englishman, an American from Texas, and an Aussie are on board ship on a cruise.  They are all seated at the same table in the dining room on the first night at sea.

To open the conversation, after introductions, the Englishman stated,

"Back home in the U.K., I have an estate so large, it takes me four hours to walk around it."

With this, the Texan pipes up, "Waal, back home in Teexas Ah got a ranch so large, it takes me five days to drive around it."

A whimsical look crosses the face of the Aussie, who says, "Yair, I had a car like that once!"
