Twenty ridiculously amazing vacation complaints

Wanderlust compiled the reults from a recent travel survey to find the twenty most incredible, ridiculous comments made to travel agents, and boy, are they good:

4. "We booked an excursion to a water park but no-one told us we had to bring our swimming costumes and towels."
12. "No-one told us there would be fish in the sea. The children were startled."
14. "I compared the size of our one-bedroom apartment to our friends' three-bedroom apartment and ours was significantly smaller.."

All of them are good; the last one is truly unbelievable (as in, I can't quite believe the person who said it exists).
