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!"

The tough coughs as he ploughs the slough.(Title of a Dr. Seuss book).
There have been a few tourists get off the plane in Sydney, Nova Scotia (home of the post-industrial wasteland known as the Sydney Tar Ponds, winner of the Sierra Club's "Most toxic place in Canada" award ten years running) wondering where the lovely opera house is.
That's only a stupid tourist thing if they booked the tickets online.
