But the GPS said…Alps-bound bus visits the Riviera

A couple of weeks ago, we published a News Link about a couple who followed their GPS off the road and into the water…now we’ve got one about a tour bus driver who set the wrong town on the device.

The travelers arrived a day late, but apparently most of them took it in stride. DETAILS
