The biggest business in the world is - international tourism. A staggering $6 trillion annually and going up. it's not surprising many tourist hot spots are fed up. Over the weekend places like Barcelona, Parma, Malaga and the Canary Islands have had enough. Venice has recently decided - enough is enough and started banning very large mega - ships from docking and charging tourist an overnight fee. The cause is an ever increasing number of middle class people in countries like: China, India, America, Germany and other places. These visitors don't want to go to Slough, but London, Stratford upon Avon, Bath, Edinburgh and other similar hot-spots. In Paris the Mona Lisa, has been given it's own room as the crush to see it is so overwhelming. No wonder the natives are revolting.
