A woman had a simple tattoo done to remember her favorite beach but got the coordinates wrong and instead – pinpointed a random spot in the Pacific Ocean.
Bri Pritchett, 24, took a trip to downtown Sedona, Arizona, with her boyfriend and friends to celebrate being fully vaccinated against coronavirus last month.
She decided to commemorate the fun holiday by getting the coordinates for Sedona tattooed on her shoulder.

Bri handed the coordinates to the artist, but unfortunately had written down ‘North’ instead of ‘South’, for the first line of the location.
The coordinates she had intended having tattooed were 34° 52′ 12″ N 111° 45′ 36″ W – placing her right in the middle of downtown Sedona.
Instead, Bri had written 34° 52′ 12″ S 111° 45′ 36″ W.
The simple mistake means that she now has the WRONG coordinates tattooed on her body, leading to a random spot nearly 3,000 miles away in the South Pacific ocean.

Bri had previously visited Sedona whilst studying at the nearby Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, Arizona.
She used to escape to the desert to hike when feeling anxious over her studies, but has since moved to St. Louis, Missouri, after graduating.
Bri returned to the special area to celebrate being fully vaccinated with her friends and decided to get her first ever tattoo in dedication to the trip on April 11.
She was thrilled with the result and posted a photo on Twitter, only for her sister to ring her with the news that the coordinates were wrong.
