Isn't that strange? 199,999,999,900 galaxies surely can't all be heading away from our galaxy. Because we are not the center of the universe from which the Big Bang expanded from.

I see your problem.  You think the Big Bang had a location in Euclidean three-space and that we are presently near that location.  That's wrong.

Picture a balloon expanding, with ants crawling on the surface.  They can't even look in the direction of the "big bang" let alone get there.

Oops. Gotta call my bookie again.
