What screams, "I'm a tourist" in your town/city?
- In New Orleans, wearing beads when it's not Mardi Gras

- Using an umbrella in Iceland. The wind is strong and the rain isn't coming straight down - more from the side and upwards!
An Italian co-worker looked outside one December day and couldn't fathom how it could snow from the right to the left.

- "oh are you Amish too?" No lady I'm dressed in shorts a soccer tee and listening to music on my phone. This is not what the Amish do and no I dont work on a farm.

- "LET'S GO HIKING IN 110º HEAT WITHOUT WATER!!"
I'm not kidding. Phoenix gets tons of tourists who wanna go hike, but they way underestimate our desert climate and go hike in the mountains totally unprepared. So many people end up needing helicopter rescue its ridiculous.

- Living near Hollywood was always fun. The tourist look disappointed half the time.
Wearing matching tshirts
Scared of the homeless
Stoping in the middle of sidewalk to take pictures of the stars.
Smiling and waving to everyone
Taking scam tour rides
Looking for Beyonce
Taking pictures with Superman in front of the Chinese Theater.
Looking disappointed when the Land of Dream is a flaming dumpster pile.

- Staring at the Amish, or being amazed by cows
Edit: apparently people seem to think I hate cows by this comment. So here is a picture of one of the ones near my house http://i.imgur.com/Rf2Y3Ie.jpg. I understand the minor irony.

- NOLA checking in:
1) beads when it's not MardiGras
2) taking pictures of the streetcar or taking pictures out of the streetcar
3) not having your money ready for the streetcar
4) Drunk1/Drunk2, Queen Bitch, or any other "I'm with Stupid" t-shirt
5) pronunciation of French street names correctly, or the incorrect incorrect pronunciation.

- Almost anything. Hawai'i tourists aren't exactly hard to spot.
Whether it's the Mustangs, the constant mispronunciations, the aggressively crimson sunburns, we got it all.
