Deux Euros (Two Euros $2.40)

Leur argent n'est pas le meme come notre DOLLAR! (Their money is not the same as our $!)

Money isn't everything, but knowing the exchange rate was somewhat sobering - well, maybe for the first day or two. It was so easy to spend Euros like dollars unmindful of the 20% exchange rate! This first euro or two doesn't matter that much, but if, for a moment you let your guard down, that lunch for 7.00 with tip has added up to something like $10 or more. And that cute little skirt you saw for 15 E is really (with tax) more like 22! One or two items or meals aren't so bad, but over a week it really adds up. Voila! You're broke! Not only that, but those coins that look like small change are really 1 and 2 Euros! So what looks like a quatre is worth almost ten times as much!
So I was very hopeful to get my money's worth at the Eiffle Tower from the Cotton Candy vender: 2 Euros or, in Yankee bucks, $2.40. I think I got my money's worth. Besides, everything tastes better when it's shared!
