Our ongoing series of tourists doing or wearing, shall we say…interesting things. Some of these will make you guffaw, some will shock you into silence, and some will make you want to track these people down and drown them in a vat of baby oil. One of my favorites, this one makes me chuckle especially hard because the girl is staring at me like I’M the jerk for taking her picture, not her and her friend for wearing micro-shorts and acting as though they are on a beach in Rio rather than an ancient religious structure in Egypt.
