Ten Commandments for Travelers
1. Thou shalt not expect to find things as thou left them at home...for thou hast left home to find things different.
2. Thou shalt not take anything too seriously..for a carefree mind is vital to a good vacation.
3. Thou shall not let other travelers get on thy nerves..for thou paid good money to enjoy thyself.
4. Thou shalt not forget..thou are a representative of your country at all times.
5. Thou shalt not worry..for he who worrieth hath no pleasure and few things are fatal.
6. Know where they passport is at all times..for a traveler without a passport is a traveler without a country.
7. As a stranger in a strange land..be prepared to do as its people doeth.
8. Thou shalt not judge all people of a country..by the one person who hath given thee trouble.
9. Blessed is the traveler who can say thank you in any language..for this and a smile doubles the value of any tip.
10. Remember thou are a guest in every land..and those who treat their hosts with respect shall be treated likewise.
