Germany, you’ve been Punk’d!
How German filmmakers hijacked part of California, stole its identity, and used it to scam an entire country.
I think I've finally figured out the origin of the expression, "If you believe that, I've got a bridge to sell you": Bluewater, California.
The "bridge" to which I refer crosses the Colorado River, and connects Bluewater, California with its sister-city, Bluewater, Arizona. According to the city's web site, downtown Bluewater offers a range of bars and restaurants where you can dine on seafood fished from local waters, get locally-grown produce from the Farmer's Market every Wednesday and Saturday, and enjoy summer poetry in the park.
