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!"

True
A friend of mine works as a custodian at Dover Castle. The shop there sells huuuuuge replica swords. She once witnessed an obese seppo (seppo-septic-septic tank-Yank) and his weeble-like son looking at a sword which was labelled 'Excalibur.'
'Dad, is that like the REAL Excalibur?'
'Of course not, Hank. This is a copy. They probably keep the real one on a vault or somethin'
