No More Smoking!!! Hooray!

After many years of heated discussions Germany finally implemented some new strict laws against smoking in public places/restaurants. Awesome! After enjoying smoke free restaurants in Ontario I wasn't used to the smoke anymore. Quite a few times Rosa and me left a restaurant because of it.

It's quite interesting how the discussions are repeating in every country. Yes, business does go down a little, and yes, there's new customers coming out now so that business even picks up. Yes, declaring your pub to be a "Smoking Club" is a nice attempt, just like some Canadian bar owner had a heated school bus on his property (because smoking in cars isn't banned).
