Aaahhh, Euro!!

Well, the Dollar has struck yet another all time low against the Euro. It now takes $1.44 to buy just 1,00€. Check out this graph to see just how much stronger the Euro has gotten in the two months (exactly today) that I've been in the Eurozone. Or look here for a one-year comparison chart or here for a two-year comparison chart.

Edit: And after posting, I realized that today is the same day as Black Tuesday in the Wall Street Stock Market Crash of 1929.

It's depressing, isn't it? Just be thankful that you'll be back in the United States soon enough! You'll no longer have to pay exorbitant prices for everyday items. :-P

I'm working in Canada right now, and this week the Canadian dollar hit an all time high against the dollar. A Canadian dollar is now worth $1.06 American.

Aryaduta: I won't be back soon enough to save my wallet!!

Julie: These "all time highs" really are getting painful, aren't they? :)
