Tips for Americans in Europe

I learned this bit of wisdom when I was in Italy several years ago:

In Heaven.....

The Cooks are French
The Lovers are Italian
The Policemen are English
And it is run by the Germans.

In Hell....

The Cooks are English
The Lovers are German
The Policemen are French
And it is run by the Italians.

You might chuckle at this now. Trust me, any American who has been to Europe is laughing out loud at the truth in this!

Be respectful in the beautiful churches & cathedrals. They require that you be a bit covered up... no bare shoulders, no spaghetti straps, no tank tops, NO shorts, no uncovered bellies, no tube tops.

Get several of the Fodor's books. They are worth their weight in gold! Have fun!
