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!"

FreudianSlap's trash cans
I suspect the Americans may have been amused by the British bins because they look like US post boxes. Many Brits have attempted to throw away rubbish into post boxes when in the US for the first time, me included. I suppose that makes me a stoopid tourist too!
