HOW TO GO TO NEW YORK FROM CHINA

Certainly at times, Google is very good in playing jokes. Let's take Google Maps for example shall we? Oh, you can do this as well. Just go to http://maps.google.com.my and follow the instruction that I am going to tell you, okay!

SCENARIO: Now, imagine yourself in China now and never mind which part of China is it. So, let's say you want to go to the Big Apple city - New York. Got the situation in your head now? GOOD.
So, you decide to drive and you are lost, what application would be handful? Google Maps. GOOD.
Have you go into the Google Maps already? Now do what exactly I tell you.

STEP 1: Go to Google Maps
Sure you are there now.

STEP 2: Click on Get Directions
Forget about walking, it's too far. Rent a car instead, so click the tab "By Car" - much subtle.

STEP 3: Now, type in China as starting point. Done? Move on to step 4.

STEP 4: Type in New York as ending point. And then, click Get Direction of course.

There you have - 19637 km and it takes you 38 days and 17 hours to reach New York. WHAT? TAKE 38 DAYS and 17 HOURS. Oh, I forgot, we are driving! But to be honest with you, I mentioned about the joke didn't I?

WAIT

Last step. STEP 5: Go to number 93 on the directions description.
NOW YOU CAN LAUGHT YOUR HEART OUT.


The picture, please click and enlarge. Nope, the answer of the joke is not in the picture.

So tell me, how do you get to New York from China? P/S - You have to TRY IT OUT to get the joke.
