<p>What did you do, NewHope? You didn’t have to pay, did you? I hope you took pictures. Did you pull out your screwdriver and fix it for them?</p>
<p>In Knoxville, when we got the second car, as the manager was walking around the car, double checking, I was following him with the camera. He acted like he’d never seen someone take photos before. That’s when he told us that small scratches and such weren’t a problem. My H informed him that they were considered a very big deal in Germany and that we got in the habit of taking photos when we couldn’t completely understand the language. That’s only half-true, but I still think it doesn’t hurt for them to know we photo-document everything.</p>
