I remember exchanging my money at the front desk in Cuba this April and just feeling as ripped off as I did a few years back when I'd exchange my money for US$.   :mad:

I agree CriCri, in fact it's the money situation that is making me think twice about going to Cuba this time.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

The worse thing is that there was no "market" reason for the decrease in value of the Canadian and US dollar.  In other words, the peso is not even pegged to another currency. Castro needs our tourist dollars but it seems he is also willing to kill the golden goose.
