    Directions and Googe Maps

    Suppose you want to get from Chicago to London. Fair enough, right? And suppose that you wanted Google Maps to help you on your way.

    According to Google Maps, it would take you a mere 29 days 22 hours to get from Chicago to London. And the reason why...?

    No. You have to pick the option that says "fastest route".

    Well, at least it suggest the best possible place to start swimming being the harbour (swimming-free zone).

    The swim across Atlantic made me laugh.
    It looks like the ground had a sex change.

    It's good Google Maps didn't suggest to go from the opposite way to swim across the Pacific Ocean...
    How many days it would take?
