I went on vacation to London, Paris, Rome and Athens awhile back. I got pulled out of line in Rome and Athens for a full search. Dumped my luggage out on the ground looking for a false bottom in my suitcase. Got ripped off by a taxi driver in Rome.

But I was a U.S. citizen all the way. Fug 'em if they don't like it. But sometimes I wonder if the harassament I felt was because I was American.

My sister lives in Australia. Aussies always treat Americans well. (As far as know anyway)

I think the 200 - 300 "fuck USA" and "Death to B*sh" signs on walls around Athens may have helped in my decision.

What? I think you might be a little confused. It's the other way around. 1 dollar is .70 Euro.

You sure ‘bout that? Someone posted the exchange rate the other day and IIRC it was about 1.30 Euro to a $1.

No, right now it .75 Euro = $1. I think the 1.30 you saw means something different...
