A couple of things...
I was visiting Edinburgh Castle, when the tour guide asked "Are there any Americans in the group?" No-one said so he continues "You see that radio mast over there, American tourists think that's Paris..."

I was visiting London as well and admiring Westminster Abbey when two Yanks piped up "Stupid place to buld an Abbey. it's right in the flight path of Heathrow."

One more. I visited America (No I haven't travelled the world) and was waiting at the airport to go home. I felt someone touch my arm, turned round and found it belonged to a middle aged woman. She then says to me "Hey, are you British?" I reply in the affirmative. "Well, do you have beaches in Britain?" She asks.
