The Dollar is getting STONGER!

After months of wondering how much more the dollar would sink against the Euro there is a glimmer of hope this week.

I don't check the currency values regularly, it was getting too depressing seeing the British Pound at $2 to 1 and the Euro reaching $1.60 to 1. So I stopped looking several months ago. This week I saw a post on the Fodors website saying the Euro is starting to decline, so I read the post with great interest since in 5 weeks time I will be in France. I was thrilled to see the Euro rate down to $1.49!

Months ago I said I would be happy if the value was around $1.50...I got my wish, now lets hope in the next 5 weeks it will either stay there or go down! That may be wishful thinking, but I will keep the positive outlook. It really doesn't matter either way, I am going no matter what the value is! :)
