Bambi, the dumbest GPS on earth

Did I mention that we named the GPS Bambi? Bambi is an asshole.

The whole trip people have told us it would take X amount of time to get to our next location, but for some reason it takes us at least twice as long. We've been able to see the countryside, which is nice, and we haven't been in a hurry or anything, but we couldn't figure out why it was taking so much longer to get around than everyone said it would.

Turns out that Bambi was programmed to avoid all toll roads and the main highway that goes through the entire country is one giant toll road!!  She was taking us on these country roads through small towns but we didn't know any better because we are in Croatia, for gods sake!

About 30 minutes until the end of our last leg of the road trip, Shannon decided to check the settings and figured out what was going on.  Fuck you, Bambi!!

Shannon was so angry that she said to Bambi "I can't even look at you I'm so pissed off" and flipped her to face the other direction.  Then we were both laughing so hard that I couldn't drive straight.

We made it to Zagreb, our final destination, three hours later than necessary.

Oh my gosh that made me laugh so hard. I can picture Shannon doing that. We named our GPS here Phyllis. She was very helpful. I'm sorry Bambi was being such a twat.
