Traveling, Lonewacko style

The picture above is the MapQuest route between two cities 476 miles apart. It shows the short route in one direction, but not in the other. According to Snopes:


...the trip from Haugesund to Trondheim is an arduous two-day journey that involves crossing the North Sea, the English Channel, and the Baltic Sea; traversing seven different countries (the U.K., France, Belgium, Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, and Sweden); and traveling a grand total of 1,686 miles - all to get between two cities less than 500 miles apart in the same country...

That actually sounds like the much more fun route.
