Exchange Rate Change

I checked the exchange rate this morning and it seems to have changed.  $1 USD is now equivalent to $0.93 AUD. That may be good for us as we transfer some cash over, but it's starting to swing in a way as to make it less desireable to transfer money back.  I hope that it could stabilize closer to 1:1.  I hope the AUD doesn't fall much farther.

It is important to note that this information does not indicate any strengthening of the United States economy.  It is more than likely a result of the financial instability of the Euro.

Exchange Rate Update

The exchange rate has changed.  The dollar has either rallied a little, the Australian dollar has weakened, or both.  The current rate is:

1 AUD = 1.03 USD
1 USD = .97 AUD

That makes it a little easier on us and a little worse on the Aussies, for now.  We still will only transfer what we need, as there is a large fee for transferring.
