[Idyllchat] Italy '08

[acricchi]

I'd side with the 'deflated dollar' description rather than the 'pricy Euro.'  Perhaps Pogo was right when he said, "We have met the enemy and it is us."  Regardless, I'm sure that, along with the working Italians, Untours will be feeling the impact as will we all.

  Does anyone have any ideas how to get around the inflated Euro, or the 
  deflated dollar, however you prefer to look at it.
  I don't think I'm doing Italy next year ,or in the near future ,because of 
  the basically 30%+ "tax".
  Our family has been going for the past 8 years but this last trip ,in '07, 
  was an eye opener.
  I guess we are heading back to the pre 1950's when only the wealthy traveled 
  overseas.
  What a shame. The sad thing is that the working Italians are reaping no 
  benefits from the pricy Euro.
