I don’t know if this has been posted anywhere before, but I have just noticed that if you ask for directions between two places on opposite sides of an ocean, such as , the directions tell you to ‘Swim across the Atlantic Ocean - 3462 km’. Kinda difficult, in my opinion. This is direction #23 in the screenshot to the left!

    The funnier one is the google maps from New York to Lisbon, Spain. It makes you swim to the English Channel and then travel down to Spain, not swim directly to Spain…?

    This is hysterical. You gotta love googles sense of humor. In case you arent aware, if you go to change the preferences of your Google search settings you could change your interface language to things like pig latin, elmer fudd and more.

    Also look at the top of the directions. Total time: About 29 days 10 hours.
