There is this highway called Canada Highway. And When i was younger i used to believe that that highway travelled all the way from one side of Canada to the other. So it wasnt untill i was about 14 and my Grandparents were taking me down that highway when i asked "are we going to Nova Scotia?" And then looked at me and laughed their heads off.

I'm not sure why, but once, in kindergarten, a boy told me about a horrible place called "Pencilvania" . Never looking at a map of the U.S and reading the states' names, I thought Pecilvania was in Europe. Then, he told me that I was taking a vacation there, and that I would die. ( Huh? ) I got really upset because I thought my family would be attacked by flying, orange pencils.

I used to think that all commonly names street connected everywhere in the country. For example, if you walked or drove long enough on Elm Drive in Chicago, you would eventually hit Elm Drive in Miami. Never mind the fact that it is physically impossible ...

When I was about 4 or so years old and my parents took me to the beach, my mom told me that if you dig under the sand really deep you can reach China. So I believed that China was underneath all beaches and if you dug really deep you'd be on top of China and could reach it.

When I was little, I used to believe that Disneyland was in the clouds. Until I actually went to Disneyland, I figured out it wasn't in the sky, and I felt really stupid! haha :)

That the British Isles is a seperate country near Africa. I think the fact that I live in England makes it worse!

I thought the borders were determined by a big red rope, that had been there since the beginning of time. I thought passports broke the rope, and when you had walked into the new country, the rope was magically fixed again!
