This is a question Stupid Tourists

What's the stupidest thing you've ever heard a tourist say? Ever heard an American talking about visiting "Scotchland, England", or (and this one is actually real) a Japanese couple talking about the correct way to say Clapham is actually Clatham, as "ph" sounds are pronounced "th". Which has a certain logic really. UPDATE: Please, no more Loogabarooga stories. It's getting like, "and I opened my eyes and my mum had left me a cup of tea!"

Taht stupid tourist was me
Was doing a bit of trekking in the rainforests of the congo about 2 seconds ago when I thought I might visit the village of Loughbourgh. I asked a local for directions, but he seemed a bit confused. After a while we worked out I was mispronnoucing the word and was actually looking for the village of loogabarooga.

How we laughed.
