Funny, Our Vince P Doesn't Look Swedish

ROME — Officials say a Swedish couple looking for the pristine waters of the popular island of Capri ended some 400 miles (660 kilometers) away in the northern industrial town of Carpi after misspelling the destination on their car's GPS.

Angelo Giovannini, a spokesman for the Carpi town hall, near Modena, said Tuesday the couple drove into the main square last week and asked the local tourist office how to reach Capri's famed Blue Grotto sea cave.

Giovannini said "we thought they might mean a restaurant. Capri is an island, they did not even wonder why they didn't cross any bridge or take any boat."

He said the couple, who were not identified, arrived from Venice and later set off to their planned destination at the other end of the Italian peninsula.

LMAO - that's a classic JB.

Axe Traveler about the time I plugged in the wrong motherlessloving address to Motel 6 in my GPS when we was at Churchill for the Breeders' Cup a few years ago.

We drove around figuratively in circles listening to some broad repeatedly saying for about 3 hours in a row,

"Recalculating......Please take the next safe U-Turn."

He almost killed me when he found out I put in the wrong address.
