Default You know someone is a tourist when...

- They stand in at the entrance to Jungle Cruise trying to figure out the tour times when they see the sign above the entrance that says "Tours Daily".
- They belive you really need a ticket and passport to ride Star Tours.
- During heavy crowds they stop in the middle of a walkway to take a picture.

- They wear cargo shorts.
- Their Hawaiian style shirts are tucked into their cargo shirts.
- On top of those cargo shorts, they're wearing fanny packs.
- On top of that Hawaiian style shirt, they wear their park passport on a lanyard.
- On back of said shirt they carry a backpack stuffed with things they're not going to end up using.
- They wear sports sneakers.

And finally...
- They're Japanese girls who cannot speak English but have killer fashion sense. :D

I guess I'm a tourist even when I'm not traveling then.

OMG, you notice that too?! Some of those girls have such JSF; it's crazy! Sometimes I wish I could go up to them and ask them for style tips, but my vocabulary/grammar isn't good enough to carry a conversation (especially about fashion!).

You know someone is a tourist when...
-They have their park map open, trying to figure out where to go.
-They're wearing hats that aren't sold at Disneyland (omg, that guy with the Stitch ears headband! >_<!!!)
-They take pictures of absolutely nothing in particular.
-They're willing to put up with lines, no matter how long they are!

When a tourist pushes you out of the way and doesn't say excuse me.

...when they think FastPass costs money.
...when they wait in line for 30 minutes or more for a character meet n' greet, only to have the character leave before they get up there.
...when they'll pay $70/day for fast-food quality meals & not even flinch.
...when they'll come to an ODV cart and spend $55 on bottled water (this happened at my cart one morning!).
...when they wear a t-shirt with some slogan they think someone cares about.
...when they buy tickets to Disneyland intending to go to DCA.
...when they save seats 5 hours before Fantasmic!.
...when when they get angry at CMs who say they cannot ride together from the single-rider line.
...when they gladly wake up at 6am to be at the park for opening & gladly stay up beyond midnight to be there for closing, then complain about the long unfair hours at their 9 to 5 job.
...when they smell like sunblock on a cloudy day.
...when they speak w/ an Aussie accent.
...when they have no idea about free water at places w/ fountain machines.
...when they think you're a CM when you wear the gold name badge.
...when they think walking in the direction of Splash Mountain will lead them to the park exit.
...when they spend hard earned cash on spinny-flashy things that will never be used again after that night.
...when they wear WDW merchandise.

O...k, that should be enough for now.

Most of those are true and i have had experiences with them. Some of them make you think "really?"
