Cussing in Romania

Near Sibiu, Romania, there is a national park, and on the grounds of the park is an old village which contains the remains of stone huts.
Some Romanian journalists were bringing me through there. I followed someone through one of the doorways, and bashed my head on the top, since I'm clearly much taller than anyone was back then.
Since it helps the pain to cuss in really bad language, I screamed out "F***", to which I heard a little kid reply "Mommy, there's another American here."
