There are no kangaroos in Austria

I was reading the other day about an Argentine tourist who wanted to visit Sydney, but accidentally finished up in Sydney, Nova Scotia. She realised something was wrong when she boarded a small plane in Halifax.

“She was taking pictures out the airplane window and said to herself, ‘Something is not right,’” local resident Christiane Tanner, who befriended the accidental tourist, told the Cape Breton Post.

The error was “due to inattention while booking flights online” and apparently it’s not the first time someone has arrived in the Canadian Sydney instead of Australia.

And some people have gone to Austria by mistake, hence the t-shirt pictured here.

I can’t say I’ve ever gone to the wrong place. I stayed at the Majestic Hotel in East London though, and it wasn’t.
