when i was in france (i was 7( i asked my dad why the sea tasted horrible he said "because a long time ago a man in china was carrying salt from china to england and he filled up his boat and it was fine he put in more it was still fine but he put in so much the boat capsized and thats why the water is salty!" well i belived him for years and when i was about 13 (knowing the real truth) i told a friend at school and he had been told a similer story by his dad!
