Well, in mundane cases where awareness of the transition from point A to B is lost -- blackouts, amnesia, failures of attention, etc. -- the experience is sometimes of a sudden translation, and sometimes of nothing in particular (that is, you're just at B now, and the fact that you don't remember getting there isn't particularly called to your attention), and sometimes of not realizing that anything in particular has happened, and sometimes other things.
I imagine you'd get a similar range in these more speculative cases.
