LOL

Reminds me of directions that my friend and I received in Boston several years ago.

We picked up our rental car about 10:00 pm and asked directions to our hotel. Well we got lost, my friend told me to pull over and she would ask the security guard.

His directions, “After you pass the old chocolate factory, go 1 mile and turn left; can’t miss it.”

Right ...... we didn’t know the old chocolate factory from the new chocolate factory (or even if there was a new chocolate factory).

We’ve laughed about that several times since.

I relate all too well to your experience. In Lucerne, we must have driven on almost every (one-way) street of the inner city for an hour trying to find our hotel, which I had been told was nearby. Finally, I gave up and decided to park and walk to find it--asking for directions as I closed in on my target. I walked 50 feet, and there it was--hidden by a corner. Where was my GPS when I needed it? And, no chocolate.
