I wonder if they expect you to swim with your car, or if you have to pick up a new one when you get to Europe.

That's a great route. Once you are about 241mi into the Atlantic on that precise route, there's a "Last Chance" diner with the hottest mermaids. I highly recommend it.

Or, you could take Hwy 1 forty miles south and ask at a gas station.

That thing is so inefficient. It doesn't tell you which way to swim.

It doesn't seem to say how far the swim is to the Canaries from the Spanish Coast.

Apparently, that part you can drive on the water for.

Haha, that so wins. I especially like that towards the end it decided to simply not give you directions between islands instead just adding "..." and then picks up again once you're out on the island.

Guess you have to figure that one out on your own. Smiley: lol

I can see the conversation now...

Programmer: Hey boss, what should I make it do if someone enters points separated by an ocean?

Boss: What kind of idiot would do that? I don't give a #%$&. You can tell them to swim across for all I care.



On a more serious note, I'm kinda disappointed because not only does it estimate only 33.5 days for the whole trip (fast swimmer, huh?) but it looks like it would be more direct to just swim directly to the destination instead of going up to France first.
