Stupid TouristsWhat'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!"

Strangely enough, people speak English all over the place these days!There was also the time a couple of young men were talking about me (in English) on a bus and eventually approached me and asked (in French) where I was from. When I answered "Michigan" they were rather embarrassed to realize I'd understood everything they'd said earlier, too.
