Using Google Maps to get directions from Kingston, Ontario to London, England step 17 says “Swim Across the Atlantic Ocean“!! Very weird! 😛
And assuming someone’s going to swim, why start swimming from Boston? Wouldn’t New Foundland be a better starting point? 😆
Here’s the link to this trip on Google Maps
Haha that rules! Anyone wanna go for a swim with me? I cant guarantee you wont be used as bait *g*
Hahahahaha! count me in!!
Haha! Thanks for sharing!
Google is worth 10.000 billion dollars. Is that how they save up? Instead of plane tickets, they maks their employee swim?
It would take “about 29 days 13 hours” to get to London.
Awesome.
I’m in.
Probably the City Hall of Boston paid Google to invite more people to visit and swim.

Hmm, I think I’d prefer the shorter swim direct from the harbour there myself…
But it opens up a whole new class of crazy trips:

Not quite circumnavigation, but if Russia ever submits the eastern half of it’s country 🙂

Actually I can top that.
