Travel internationally enough, eventually you end up needing to visit Embassies and Consulates for different reasons. Usually documents. Last December I was in a foreign county, and yes, they are US Govt employee's but they were all natives. The whole thing gave me the creeps. I had some fleeting thoughts that it was not going to go well, and I'd be jammed up if it didn't.
Three days later, Christmas day, my hotel phone rang and it was Customs & Border just verifying I was in the hotel that I said I was staying in.
