I asked a chronological expert about this and all he said was "Don't Blink".

Well, that's an awful wibbly wobbly answer. Who is this guy anyway?
FunkyTuba:
guessing here ... (lucky if I hit the right order of magnitude)
5-10 mph * 8-10 hours/day * 22 days = 1000-2000 miles ... that's a pretty good chunk of land they've covered ... what man-made lakes are that long across?
or am I drastically overestimating the kind of progress they could make
TinPenguin:
It hasn't been said that they've been travelling across the lake for three weeks, or even that they've been travelling for three weeks. That's only how long Gavia was out.
But you are also drastically overestimating. :wink: I don't know how fast those dogs move, but most beast-drawn carts won't reach much beyond human walking speed (carriages and cabs are a different matter).
Zebediah:
Unless those birds are significantly more robust than draft horses, then at most you're looking at 20 miles per day. And that's assuming that they've been on fairly level ground the whole time.
