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!"

One From Norway: Rough Translation
As mentioned Below (Credit to MikeYYY), American tourists Demanded to get the money back that they had paid to see the "midnight sun", when they discovered it was the same sun they had in the USA.
As a link was provided, I've attempted a rough translation for you guys to have a laugh at.(nearly the same as Swedish, so should be easy... LOL)

– Vi reiste ikke til Norge for å se vår egen sol.
We didn't travel to Norway to see our own SUN

-Guiden forsøkte å forklare hva midnattsola er, men turistene står på sitt.
The Guide tried to explain WHAT the midnight sun was, but the tourists wouldn't change thier minds.

-Vi er blitt svindlet, raste de, og krevde pengene tilbake.
We were Swindled, Laughed at, and want our money Back

-Nå spørs det om noen forteller dem at vi også har samme måne.
They were also told that they have the same Moon.

HAHA. Marvellous.
