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!"

One from Norway...
A yank married couple which were travelling ith the Norwegian shipping line "Hurtigruten" claimed their money back since "The midnight sun is the same sun as back home in the US, the shipping line gave us the impression that they have an another type of sun here in Norway, this is fraudulent behaviour.
Yup, you can read it here (if you can translate it first).
