We went to Canada a few weeks ago and I was really pleased with that I was able to get the best exchange rates. One thing I also thought was interesting is that when we were shopping near the border, we were able to exchange currencies with other travelers. Of course we could not buy anything in Canada with a Japanese yen, a rupee, a euro or a penny from America, but they are good souvenirs for our traveling scrapbook. We took so many pictures on this trip, too. It is a good thing that digital camera were invented or we would be broke by now from developing pictures.
