Phonetic Golfing Vacation

Whoops. When I'm searching for a particular thing on Google, I'll often put in a random sampling of words I know are in the document. For example, "course events declaration" gets The Library of Congess' web page on the Declaration of Independence as its first hit.

A moment ago, I wanted the NATO Phonetic Alphabet. You know, "Alpha Bravo Charlie" for "ABC." So, I searched for "hotel golf lima," which for some reason were the first things that came to mind.

I was rather surprised when none of the resulting links had anything to do with phonetic alphabets. When I thought about it, of course, it was obvious: If you wanted to book a hotel for a golf vacation in Lima, Peru, what else would you search for?
