Gayle,

Thanks for your comments on restaurant prices. Perhaps I'm monetarily stupid, but I cannot see any reason why a strong Euro against the dollar would make the restaruants raise their prices in Euros. The cost of their supplies bought from France would be unchanged, and the cost of supplies from the USA would be cheaper.

Just the difference in exchange rates has raised the cost of island food to us by about 40% in less than 2 years. At what point will this hurt tourism, or is it already?
