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!"

2 reasons to be careful while ordering food in Spain:

1) Pollo is chicken, polla is 'willy'. This one is so frequently mispronounced that the butchers round here don't even bother taking the piss anymore.
2) Conejo is rabbit, cojones are testicles.
