Open Google Maps

Go to "Get Directions"

Type your starting destination as "Santa Cruz"

Type your end destination as "Honolulu"

Read instruction 22

(I got sent this by a friend on Facebook, I did not find this)

    WOW! do you think ANYONE dared? I checked the instructions on how to get to catalina island. THERE, it suggested taking a ferry! IT was only 38 miles

    But - why do I have to go to BC first?
    when the Hawaiians went to Santa Cruz in the 1800's, they just went there...
    I guess they didn't google it

      It is a Google Easter Egg, not meant to be taken literally but as a joke

    Just shows you how stupid Google Maps is ... you could have kayaked straight to Honolulu without driving up past Seattle first.



    If you put China in as the destination, after the kayak trip, the directions change to things like:

    45. Turn left toward 県道275号線

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.
