My brother, a couple of friends, and I have been tossing around the idea of going to Germany sometime.

They estimated that it would take about 30 days to get from our house to Berlin. That includes a 3,462 mi swim across the Atlantic Ocean … and you thought the Iron Man Triathlon was a feat.

I wonder if Google has a disclaimer to fall back on in case someone attempts to follow these directions and drowns.
