The furthest south I have ever been

I was fairly certain the furthest south I'd ever been was Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, but I checked, and Walt Disney World in Florida is quarter of a degree nearer the equator. I had to check again to discover which constituent part of Walt's entertainment complex was furthest south, confirming that it definitely isn't the Magic Kingdom, and that that Hollywood Studios beats Animal Kingdom beats Epcot. But it turns out the garish accommodation of the All Star Music Resort took the crown, specifically the 'Calypso' block emblazoned with giant bongos and maracas, where I learned that pancakes and sausage was a perfectly acceptable breakfast. And round the back was an extensive car park, which is where we left our Chrysler convertible, and that's the furthest south on the planet's surface I have ever been. How about you?
