Thats a funny article. Sadly the ones who need to heed the advice will probably never read it! And its not just the American tourists who should read it....the boozy sunburnt chav hoardes who invade Orlando and the Costa del Sol every year could take some hints from it too. And the rude steroeotypical germans....

We continue to welcome them."

Surely the spokesman must have meant: We continue to welcome their money.
