    Yep, but take it in stride, they're just having a little fun. On my last trip I was in the company of an Aussie who received the same greeting. He was a little annoyed by the assumption that because he was white he was also American but I assured him it was all in good fun. No worries mate!
    What's really humorous is the facial expressions when the kids hear you speak the local language. :D

    It's the accent that makes it funny??/?? But feel so proud and elated hearing our language spoken by foreigners- just love it and put smile on my face.
    Anyway, welcome on board viperACR.
