Ok, here's a laugh for you...
We are planning a trip to Australia/New Zealand for next month.
I typed in how far from Cairns to Brisbane on a map quest sort of thing and the directions came with a starting point in California. It said to drive up to Oregon, gave all the routes and all, then KAYAK to Hawaii. Then to drive all the roads stated in Hawaii, then KAYAK to Japan, then take the roads stated in Japan, then KAYAK to Brisbane. WE all thought that was funny!
