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!"

SoI'm standing in RIGHT IN front of Edinburgh castle.
English (not American) people drive up in a car. One of them leans out and shouts to me.
'EEYA, WHEYARS EMBRA CARSOL?'
It's right there, I say
'OH' they say
'ISABITSMALLINNIT?'
*blank look*
It's all there is, I'm afraid
And then they drove off. Delightful.
