Don't want to start a slanging match but is that not what traveling is about?
On the plus side i do enjoy a bit of banter but think this is a bit too much

Euro trash was the wrong description (no offense intended) Not trash, as most that come over are quite well off. Not many Brits around, but I'm sure they were out there among the thousands flooding our Sierra Nevada in Fall.
The irony is so many Americans can't afford to see our parks or travel anywhere ... can't afford time off work (if they have work at all), can't afford the hyper inflated prices caused by the Euro horde invasions. Sure, tourism helps some but also puts these sites out of reach for many natives. Prices have more than doubled in 5 years. (Hotels, Restaurants) Fuel is still cheap ... about $3.50 per US gallon.
Hey, maybe we should have tiered pricing like they do throughout Latin America? ... one price for Nationals, another for others?. :oops2: |
