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!"

An American in Florence!
I was once strolling through one of the busy tourist areas in Florence, and overheard an American woman getting off a tour bus.
Out loud she asked:
"Whad is there t' do in this place?"
I was tempted to tell her there was nothing to do, in the hope that there would be one less fat American clogging up the streets of Florence.
