Dollar boon for Americans across Europe boosts buying power
Across Europe the dollar climbs against the euro and other currencies, lowering prices for travelers. In Rome Americans pay about $85 for Gucci loafers and $2.72 for orange juice, while Paris offers meals at Maxim's for about $82. Madrid preserves Prado visits at last year’s price, and Athens offers meals around $7 with gas at $5 per gallon in Greece. The stronger dollar also lifts demand for souvenir shopping and dining from London to Vienna.
