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!"

It's the big blue thing...My home town was a rather pretty Cumbrian town right on the coast. I was approached by a tourist of unknown origins who asked me the way to the harbour. I turned around 180 degrees and pointed at the very obvious harbour a few feet directly behind me. It even had several boats in it. She had asked me while facing it having walked a good long way down the hill towards it.
