Cost of Happy Meal in London: $14

The wife and I had considered a European cruise this year, but with the dollar having fallen to $1.55 against the Euro today, I think we'll put that one on hold.

The title of this post is an actual anecdote from a co-worker of a friend who recently returned from Great Britain.

You deserve a break today, indeed.

Hey my fellow americans,

used to be the other way round some while back ( When I visited the states ).
Perhaps I should come over and visit you, now that the buck is sooo cheap. ;-)

Greetings

Thomas from Munich, Germany
