today i had to go to airport here, and since it's few kms outside of the city i got the chance (i was stuck in traffic jam) to see all the silly western/northern european tourists, moving slowly for hundereds of kilometres in the heat...they're like nomads, they fill their cars with practically everything, from food to pets, boats,... and same thing happens year after year...only people are changing.
at moments like this im glad im not western/northern european. :)

could be...although somehow i don't think they have vit d in mind when they decide where to go. it's in their nature...got used doing that through their childhood...and it just goes on and on.
but to be honest, my country fellowmen are same way...they all rush to seaside at exactly the same time, same place.
i go to sea side often as well, but i never get to see any of these silly people, coz i go to places where i can't see those morons + the roads are empty at the hours i go. aint i clever :)

You have fooled them all by satisfyiing your primal urges in solitude.
Probably hard to get laid by a pasty-white scottswoman though.

scotts don't visit these parts...actually i saw a british at the gas station (they're easy to spot since they've got the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car), it was a large nigro, so my guess is he wasn't scottish.

yeah, tourists are fucking stupid! They'll buy anything that seems even remotely connected to the place they're at ("you can get this 3 million year old rock for only 50 kroner!" (I'd say 3 million years is young for a rock...)), and if you've ever been on a glacier with germans and americans? they don't get that it's dangerous to remove their harness (even though no-one would be able to pull those fat-ass american bitches up from a crack in the glacier anyway...). They tend to just, on a whim, remove their harness and run over to the nearest crack to take pictures of it! All other nationalities understand that the harness is there for their protection, so why can't germans and americans understand this?!

not to forget the two americans that recently tried sueing a norwegian tour-operator because the operator advertised with "a very special sun shines in northern norway at night," and they were disappointed 'cause it was the same sun as during the day...

-'So anyway how do you like it in my countrry, it's prrobably nice to get a brreak frrom the heat down underr?' I said

"Especially when they arre young female and frrom Japan. "
that doesn't fit into this category :)
for real though...they usually travel around, visiting cities...it's individual tourism which's got nothing to do with mass tourism.
today we again have huge traffic jams cos of people going to sea side...ahh
