True story...last year, in Germany, traveling by train between Munich and Fussen we struck up a conversation with the young couple sitting across from us. They asked where we were from. When we said 'Canada', they asked why we didn't have a Canadian flag on our bags such as they had seen many times on that very train. My reply 'only Americans have Canadian flags on their bags' almost sent them rolling into the aisle with laughter.
See what I started 40+ years ago. I didn't realize it was such a good idea!
