Watching us, watching you, watching us, watching you

With the vast number of museums etc I have been to over the trip I have become strangely accustomed to being watched.  For some reason, the guides/security staff have been much moiré likely to follow you about (maybe I look shifty all of a sudden) rather than just monitoring from afar compared to other trips/places I have been.  In Prague particularly, many staff members looked especially miserable to be there.

There was even one occasion in Berlin where I got “told off” by a member of staff for spending too little time looking at the displays in a particular room!  Obviously a particular interest of hers, but given it was mainly written in German (which means it has to interest me enough to take the effort to try and translate it) I hope I could be excused!
