Returning Complex Values -- What am i doing wrong

It says to make sure I'm returning the correct values for the case statements, and I've looked over them heaps, but i can't figure out what I'm doing wrong?

func getTowerCoordinates (location: String) -> (Double, Double) { switch location {

 case "Eiffel Tower": return (48.8582, 2.2945)

 case "Great Pryamid": return (29.9792, 31.1344)

 case "Sydney Opera House": return (33.8587, 151.2140)

 default: return (0,0)

} }

Typo on Pyramid. ;)

func getTowerCoordinates (location: String) -> (Double, Double) { 
    switch location {
    case "Eiffel Tower":
        return (48.8582, 2.2945)
    case "Great Pyramid": 
        return (29.9792, 31.1344)
    case "Sydney Opera House":
        return (33.8587, 151.2140)
    default: 
        return (0,0)
    }
}

Enums are AWESOME. Especially when you can use associated values with them. The best thing is once I learnt about them I realise I see them EVERYWHERE in frameworks we use. :)
