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!"

Whilst on the Cornish Coast last year
we were on a beach looking at the cliffs which have beautiful striated rock formations that are all deformed from geological action. Over my shoulder I heard an american voice say:
'Oh Wow, look at those amazing rocks, they must be like, a thousand years old!'
