Lost in translation

Sometimes, websites about foreign attractions contain some funny English. You can just tell that someone did his or her best to literally translate a phrase into English.

Here's one for King Ludwig's castle in Germany, which is the castle that gave the inspiration for Disney's Sleeping Beauty castles. In suggesting that we have lunch after our tour, the website says: "You can enjoy this extremely breath-robbing view after your castle guidance."

I'm going to try to keep track of those and post them when I come across funny ones.

That's a good one! I hope that's all that gets robbed!
