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!"

Dry humour?Living in a tropical tourist city in Australia (Cairns) we get our fair share of not-so-bright visitors.
Twas the middle of the wet season and the wife and I were taking a walk through some local World Heritage listed rainforest.
Overheard an American guy complaining to his wife that he was disappointed that it was raining as he hadn't expected that it ever rained in Australia.
Not even in a rainforest...
