GPS Typo Sends Swedish Tourists 400 Miles Off Course
| July 29th, 2009 1 commentA Swedish couple entered Carpi instead of Capri into their GPS and ended up 400 miles from the Italian resort island they were looking for, Britain’s Telegraph reports. Carpi is an industrial city in northern Italy, where the couple reportedly asked the local tourism office how to get to the Blue Grotto. It’s not entirely clear whether the couple, who were not identified or interviewed, realized that Capri is an island.
