I just learnt something interesting by doing the test myself.
It seems that to reach the abime.net server (North of France), my ISP network send the packets to Lyon (Lyons in English) which is North of me (and South of the abime.net server). But then it goes back to Marseilles (very South of France and South of me) 
And there is a rivalry between the two cities about which one is the second major city in France. Seems like the network structure of my ISP has decided  . |
Thanks for the info. Interesting how packets don't take the short route and go the long way.
