Sure they're happy that you gave them the equivalent of US$12.50 in Euros to pay a US$10 tax. They made $2.50 as acting as the cambio.

It makes more sense than to go get dollars you only need at the airport.HOWMAR said:Sure they're happy that you gave them the equivalent of US$12.50 in Euros to pay a US$10 tax.
