In 2000 I was in London with my (soon to be) girlfriend. We went to a friend's house and met an Australian couple for the first time. A week later, she and I decided (at very short notice) to take a week-long camping trip to Devon and Cornwall (as she had never been). Towards the end of that trip we ended up staying at a hostel in a tiny village called Zennor. The following morning, as we went out to my car - out came the same Australian couple, and they were parked right next to us in the reasonably large car park. When we'd seen them in London, we'd had no idea that we were going to go to Cornwall, and that topic of conversation had not arisen anyway. Although they had planned a west-country trip (I should re-iterate that they had not mentioned this to us when we saw them in London), they'd had no idea where exactly they were going to go to until they got there. Although perhaps not as amazing as some of the other stories on here, but I still think it is a pretty interesting coincidence.
