You're kidding right? You want to swap stupid tourist stories? Every
nation
has
them. I was walking down the main street in Hoboken NJ listening to a
German
(or Belgian or Dutch or Danish, couldn't really tell), ask his American
buddy
if Hoboken was part of New York City. Unlike you, his friend replied
politely
(pointing east across the Hudson); "that's NYC, we're still in New
Jersey". I
got a chuckle out of it, but would not have been so French as to laugh
out
loud.
You think you have it bad?
I live in Orlando.
Tourist capital of the friggin' *planet*.
Any bad story or comment you hear about Americans is a drop in the
bucket compared to everyday life in The City Beautiful...
