Re: [DML] Eurofest Currency

[Marc A Levy <malevy@xxxx>]

OK, so what IS the official currency? British Pound? Irish Punt? 

What is the current conversion rate to US Dollars?

There are prices on the DOA site, but I don't think they are US Dollars.

1 USD = 0.687 GBP (135 GBP = $196.46 USD)
1 USD = 0.847 IEP (135 IEP = $159.34 USD)

Conversion rate plays some significance in budgeting the trip! 

Thanks
