More tourist dumbness....
Ok, back to American tourists
Working in a hotel in New Zealand, i deal with a lot of them.

*Trains...
"So do we HAVE to catch the train from the railway station?" 'uhh.. where else R U gonna catch it from? K Mart?'

*All you can eat restaurant...
"Excuse me, are you going to take our order or what?" see that smorgasboard over there....?

*Looking at a map...
"So what's the main street called?" '...Main street' (Kiwi originallity!!)

*Wild Penguins...
"So you can only see them at the beach?" 'No, our Penguins fly..'

*Bed & Breakfast hotel
"What time's dinner?"

*Outside
"Now how do we get back out to the front?" '..Hmmm, try the front door (it's right behind you, its also the way you came in)'

*Telephones
"How do I use the phone in my room?" 'The same as a phone anywhere else, pick it up, press the buttons....'


There are many more dumb questions, but I can't remember them all
