Tourists Makes Me Smile :)

The tourists are coming, the tourists are coming! In fact, they have already come. On the bus ride home from school today I saw countless fur coat, red lanyard, huge sunglass wearing people flooding the streets of Park City. Of course, lots of jokes were made about their pursed lips and huge stilettos, but the most fun was when we decided to actually tell them what we thought. Unfortunately, this thought came around a little late, so only a few tourists were in sight. We gave the job of their humiliation to Nathaniel. Not a good choice. When we neared these two tourists, although there were so many other ways to make fun of them, he chose to say "I don't like your pants." Like, really? That's the best you can do?

Well, anyways, just about half an hour ago I had another run in with some tourists. One was from Michigan, the other from Ohio. The funny thing is that both these men were wearing women's ski gear. The one from Ohio was wearing a scarf. Not even the manly kind! It was kind of embarrassing, but hey, whatever floats your boat. They actually proved to be not that bad, which made me happy because we were all waiting for the city bus, which wouldn't be there for another 20 minutes. I found out that Michigan was here for some promotional thing for his company, who are apparently giving out free veggie burgers and hot cocoa on Main Street. Maybe I'll go sometime. Basically, these two guys have sort of made me like tourists.

I always hope that I might see a celebrity tourist on the bus too, but so far no such luck. I've been especially hopeful lately because Daniel Radcliffe is here this year for Sundance. Oddly enough, I just wrote a post about him about two back saying how much I liked him. And now he's here! I'm pretty sure that it is a sign that I am destined to meet the chosen one. Back on topic, I really doubt that Harry Potter would take the city bus anyways because he could just fly his broom. Not that anyone would notice, because we're all just muggles. Maybe I don't smile at tourists just because they look stupid, but also because they're nice. Or the boy who lived. Either way, go out, mingle, meet some tourists, and of course smile :)
