Cute! ^

We just returned from Germany and Italy and I'm still recovering from having to show my passport at every hotel.

For cripes sake, the clerk selling us two liters of water and a magazine in a post-security newstand-type shop in MUC demanded my passport and either photocopied or scanned it.
