You have not reached your destination
A couple of tourists in Hawaii really got to experience the ocean in a different way. They were driving around the dock area of Honokohau Harbor, in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. Their goal was a dive training site Manta Ray Snorkel tour company in the harbor. According to the lady driving she just followed the prompts of her GPS and it drove them right over the boat ramp and into the ocean. Fortunately for her, the crew of the Nanea sailboat had returned from a day of sailing when they witnessed the car drive head-on into the harbor beside them. A sailboat crew jumped into action to save the two tourists out of their sinking van. The quick-thinking crew swam up to the driver and passenger and helping them out of the silver Chrysler Town & Country through the front windows. Meanwhile, another pair of men tied a rope to the back of the van, attempting to pull it back onto the boat ramp, but ultimately failed as it quickly became fully submerged. “Pretty sure that wasn’t supposed to happen,” Christie Hutchinson can be heard saying from behind the camera as she recorded the video below. “One expensive vacation,” quipped one savvy traveler. “Hope they got the extra coverage on their rental car.”
Meanwhile in Texas
A fisherman saw what looked to be a black Jeep virtually submerged in a large lake. Not until later, after a tow truck came, did anyone realize someone was in the vehicle — and that they were still alive! “We do not know how long the Jeep was in the water,” Capt. Chuck Rogers, County Sheriff. The Jeep was far from shore, about 40 feet out in the water from Woody’s Camp Boat Ramp. The fisherman who called the authorities stuck around, using his boat to help a tow-truck worker get out to the Jeep and hook up a tow cable, Rogers said. “It was at that time they saw the woman” inside the Jeep, the captain added. Abruptly, what began as a salvage job became a rescue. The fisherman and tow-truck driver helped get the woman out of the vehicle, pulling her into the fishing boat. Police in a nearby town say she had been reported missing hours earlier. Deputies called an ambulance; in the meantime, the woman was put in a car to keep her warm. She was later taken to a hospital. She had been reported missing hours earlier. Apparently, the jeep’s high clearance was the reason the seated woman could have her head above water while the car had stalled with lake water over the dashboard.

My husband is horrible with GPS navigation..
I think it’s because, he hates being told what to do.
I got myself a seniors GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.
I bought a new Korean car. When I turned on the GPS…
I could not understand a word it was saying.
A journalist asked Tim Cook why iPhones are so expensive.
“Well,” said Tim Cook, “that’s because the iPhone replaces a whole bunch of devices. A phone, a camera, a watch, a music player, a video player, a PDA, a voice recorder, a GPS navigator, a flashlight, a calculator, a portable gaming console, and many other things. Surely, a high price is worth paying to replace so many devices!”
