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!"

Tales from Edinburgh
I fondly remember being on a train pulling out of Edinburgh station to hear two American ladies discussing how nice it was that they built the castle so close to the train station. But that they should have built it at the bottom of the hill as it would have been easier to get into.
I truly hope they were joking :?
