Money Money Money
A rough week, we almost ended up begging for Euros on rue de Rivoli. Well, not really. But it was weird. My PIN for my Austin debit card stopped working, and the bank couldn't figure out why. We didn't have our $$ here yet for our moving and living expenses, so no euros in the Paris bank. Two different Visa cards had the "call Visa" red flag go up because we were buying things on them at appliance stores in a foreign country. It was really weird. Finally my $$ showed up in Paris, and the Austin bank figured out that the new computer system screwed up all cash withdrawals in Europe. And the Visa people are now happy (I had forgotten to tell them we were moving to France). D'oh!
