John Kane Kingston ON Canada
First time I went to the US (+15 years ago) there were no available flights to NYC that day so I took one to Montreal, thinking I'd take the bus from there. In Montreal, I went to the bus station and I bought a ticket to "Kingston", not knowing that there were Kingstons all over the place. When I tried to take the bus going to Kingston NY, my final destination, the driver made me understand with a series of hardly understandable grunts that I was not taking the right bus. Eventually the person selling the tickets told me I was heading to Kingston ON and that the fare for NY was much higher. I ended up landing in Albany and hitching my way to Kingston, not without being thoroughly checked at the border, luggages and all...
