    I know people think it's hip and crap to complain about American tourists. Those neophytes know nothing about Australian, British, and German tourists.

    The problem with German tourists is they get naked at the drop of hat on the beach. And not a good naked. Hermann Goering at the top of his game of his game naked.

    The bar was probably padding the bill. I've seen that happen in China in tea shops. You're paying by the ounce, not the cup/glass full. It's illegal, but happens.

    There's a scam in tourist spots where you go into a nightclub and they charge you an exorbitant amount for drinks. Of course, they don't tell you this beforehand. If you object to paying, that's when things get ugly.
