I received an email this weekend telling me to get directions from Google Maps from New York, New York to Paris France and then read through the directions they give. The first odd thing that I noticed with the directions is that the trip will take 29 days and 7 hours? Hmm - I never knew you would need to take about 2.5-3 months off just to visit Paris. Then I saw why it takes so long...Google Doesn't believe in planes! Step 24 in the directions has you swim 3,462 miles across the Atlantic Ocean. I wonder if Google is going to set up little rest stops in the ocean so we can take breaks and grab a snack? Anyways, this is an awesome find on Google Maps, and I hope to find out about more like this "easter egg" soon!
