LOL, indeed a lil bit of humor and I'll be laughing harder if someone actually followed those directions. |

Tried New York to London, England and it tells you to swim. Line 23 says swim for 3,462 miles. Same distance as New York to France. Odd, I'll try more...
New York, New York, to Bern, Switzerland. Line 23: swim 3,462 miles. Google has problems. |

LOL....That's because the Atlantic is 3,462 miles, regardless of whether you are going to France, Switzerland, or even China. I would expect England to be a little different, but not by much. Probably less than 50 miles different. The English coast and the French coast are pretty close to the same distance. Remember that the shortest distance between two points on a sphere is NOT a straight line, and English coast may actualy be closer than French.

It's a deliberate joke by the programmers for those wanting to drive the Atlantic.
